When you take your child to their annual physical, they get their height and weight measured and are plotted on a growth chart. But what do all those little dots on the chart really mean? Today we'll explain everything you wanted to know about growth charts, and how to assess your child's growth. Spoiler alert: it's OKAY if your kid isn't at the 50th percentile! We'll touch on the BMI and explain why it might not be the best representation of how your child is growing. On Jen, is This Healthy?  we'll chat about cheese sticks and if they are a healthy snack for your child.
