Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 I've been going through all of Olivia's records and filling in the growth charts in prep for our GI appt at the end of this month (and also for the convention!) She is plottable although not on the %ile's, she's following her own curve though. I've also been plotting the BMI. she is not following any curve, it's going almost straight down. BUT, I have no idea what Body Mass Index means! or what it's measuring/charting... Hope this doesn't sound to weird, you'd think that I would know this but I don't!! TIA Leah, mom to Ash 9 and Olivia 4.5yrs, 18#, 33 " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
