The growth curve is a very sensitive indicator of a youngster’s overall health. Ideally, the head circumference should be measured with a rigid tape above the supraorbital ridge, parallel to the ground, and encompassing the largest circumference of the head. Accurate weight measurements are usually easier to take than length or height.
