What these numbers imply
The figures below are not published directly by the CDC. Each one is calculated from the official 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Weight gain over the next 12 months | +4.0 kg | The 50th percentile rises from 32.1 kg to 36.1 kg over the following year. Derived from adjacent rows of the same CDC table. |
| Spread between 3rd and 97th percentile | 25.2 kg | At this age the middle 94% of boys fall between 24.2 kg and 49.4 kg. Weight varies far more than height at the same age. |
| Share of the age-20 median reached | 45.5% | The 50th percentile here is 32.1 kg; the CDC table ends at age 20 with a 50th percentile of 70.6 kg. |
| Difference from girls at the same age | -1.0 kg | The 50th percentile for boys is 1.0 kg lighter than that for girls at this age. |
| Median height and resulting BMI | 138.8 cm · BMI 16.7 | Combining the 50th percentile of weight (32.1 kg) with the 50th percentile of stature (138.8 cm) from the CDC weight-for-age and stature-for-age tables. |
