^Median height is the height at the 50th percentile for the child's age. This is a guide only designed for children 1 year and above. Always consult a healthcare professional if you have any concerns about your child's growth pattern as interpretation of growth must be made in the overall clinical context of the individual child. Height above or below the 50th percentile can be appropriate depending on birth length, parental height and rate of growth which can be observed from serial measurements of the child’s height overtime.
