Baby height monitoring?

Baby height monitoring is one of the most important indicators of healthy growth. In Turkey, the Republic of Health Ministry and worldwide WHO (World Health Organization) recommend that babies' heights be measured at regular intervals and tracked on their own growth curve.
In the first two years, babies reach approximately 1.5 times their birth height — during this rapid growth period each baby has their own line. What matters is not the value of a single measurement, but how it progresses over time. Dropping below the 3rd percentile on percentile curves, stopping growth between two checkups, or a sharp change in direction should be evaluated by a pediatrician. For home measurement, measuring while the baby is lying, head at top and legs straight, with the same anatomical tape in the same position, is most correct.
