Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
Generally, a 3-year-old child's height should be between 90 and 100 centimeters, and weight should be between 10 and 14 kilograms. A 3-year-old child's height and weight are influenced by factors such as diet, sleep, and physical activity, so there is natural variation among children. Regular physical examinations can monitor a child's height and weight to promptly identify any abnormalities and allow timely intervention. If a child's height or weight falls below the expected range, it is recommended to seek medical evaluation promptly to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment.
