Baby Growth Percentile

Where your baby's weight and height fall among Korean peers, with age in months and corrected age.

Using the LMS growth reference published by Korea's National Health Insurance Service, this tool counts roughly where today's weight, height and head circumference fall among 100 babies of the same sex and month. Enter the birth date to get the age in completed months, and the due date to get a preterm baby's corrected age as well. Everything is computed inside this browser and stored nowhere.

Growth percentile

Enter sex, birth date, the measuring date and a weight, height or head circumference to get that month's percentile and z score. From 24 months, body mass index is counted too.

Age in months

From the birth date: completed months, days since birth, the 100th day and the first birthday. Add the due date to get the corrected age.

How to use

What this app does not do

It does not label the numbers. Whatever the percentile, no verdict is attached beneath it, no growth is predicted, and no visit is replaced. This screen is not reference material for a paediatric check-up. A baby's growth is read as a trend over time rather than a single number, and reading that trend is the job of the doctor who examines the child.
