What these numbers imply
The figures below are not published directly by the CDC. Each one is calculated from the official stature-for-age and weight-for-age tables so that this page answers questions the raw dataset leaves open. Values differ for every age and sex.
| Measure | Value | How it was derived |
|---|---|---|
| Growth over the next 12 months | +6.9 cm | The 50th percentile rises from 101.0 cm to 108.0 cm over the following year. Derived from adjacent rows of the same CDC table. |
| Spread between 3rd and 97th percentile | 16.4 cm | At this age the middle 94% of girls fall between 93.1 cm and 109.5 cm. A wider spread means age alone explains less. |
| Share of adult median height reached | 61.9% | The 50th percentile at this age is 101.0 cm; the CDC table ends at age 20 with a 50th percentile of 163.3 cm. |
| Difference from boys at the same age | -1.5 cm | The 50th percentile for girls is 1.5 cm shorter than the 50th percentile for boys at this age. |
| Median weight and resulting BMI at this age | 15.9 kg · BMI 15.6 | Combining the 50th percentile of weight (15.9 kg) with the 50th percentile of height (101.0 cm) from the CDC weight-for-age and stature-for-age tables. |
These are population reference statistics only. They describe how a group of children of this age and sex is distributed, and say nothing about any individual child.
How to read this table
For this table, the percentile is a position in the cited reference distribution for children of the same sex and completed age band. The 50th percentile is the median: about half of the reference observations are lower and half are higher. A percentile is not a forecast, target, diagnosis, or measure of an individual child’s health. Measurement method and the reference chart used can change the reported position.
Measurement: CDC reports standing stature for this age band.
