How much does a baby grow around 14 months?

Going by the WHO medians, about 1.1 cm (0.4 in) for boys and 1.2 cm (0.5 in) for girls in the month leading up to 14 months. Single measurements are noisy; a few checkups show the trend better.

Is my 14-month-old short or tall?

A length between the 3rd and the 97th percentile is within the usual range, and much of where a baby sits comes from the parents’ heights. Talk to your pediatrician if length is below the 3rd or above the 97th percentile, or if the curve crosses two of the main percentile lines over a few months.
