Essential Growth Milestones and Nutritional Guidelines for Infants, Children, and Teens

Understanding the growth and development of infants, children, and teens is crucial. By 12 months, most infants typically double their birth weight. It's important to transition to non-fat cow’s milk after 1 year. Solid foods should be introduced to LGA babies by 3 months to meet their needs. Growth rates reveal health status, with deceleration possibly indicating failure to thrive. This guide addresses growth assessment methods, dietary needs, and health risks in pregnant teens for a comprehensive understanding of pediatric health.
