Are baby growth charts accurate?

Growth charts for infants are valuable tools used by healthcare professionals to monitor a baby's growth and development. A trained healthcare professional will be able to accurately interpret and assess your baby’s health using these growth charts.  While they provide useful information, it's important to remember that every child is unique and these percentile growth charts are only one way to measure whether your baby is growing healthily. Growth charts offer a general guideline, but individual factors such as genetics and health can influence a baby's growth.
