A member asked:

My son is 18 month and his weight is 9.5 kg is that under weight or is it still oki and how much should he weight in that age?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

He is...: ...At roughly the 10th percentile, which is normal if that's where he's been. If he was 50th percentile at 15months and 75th percentile at 12 months, he is not growing properly. If he has been 10th percentile all along, he's fine. It doesn't matter what percentile he's in, it matters how he's been growing.
