Studies on growth and physical development of infant and children are important as they provide determinants of nations health. Although there are many variables related to growth, the most commonly and widely used measurements include weight, height and circumferences of head, arm and chest. Height is a relatively insensitive parameter of rapid changes in nutritional status.
