Audrey's 18/19 Month Stats

We waited too long to book Audrey's 18 month appointment, so she went at 19 months.

Weight: 9.300 kg = 20.5lbs.  25th Percentile
Height: 83 cm = 32.7 inches 50th Percentile
Head:  47 cm = 50-75th Percentile

All of the percentiles above based on the World Health Organization charts.

I am trying to switch to the WHO charts, but my subconscious begs me to also compare to the CDC charts.

On the CDC charts she would be below the 5th percentile for her weight.  She would be between the 75-90th for her height, and her head would be in the 75th percentile.  It's so confusing why they differ so much, except knowing that based on the rest of the world, Americans are so much bigger in general.
