Children grow faster during infancy than in childhood. Infants typically experience rapid growth, with weight doubling by about five months and tripling by their first birthday. In contrast, growth during childhood is more gradual and steady, with growth spurts occurring periodically but at a slower rate compared to the first year of life. Overall, the most significant growth occurs during the first year.

Why is a newborns head bigger than the body?

A newborn's head is proportionally larger than their body due to the rapid development of the brain during gestation. The head houses the brain, which is crucial for survival and development, and it grows significantly in size to accommodate the complex functions it must perform. Additionally, the larger head size helps facilitate the birthing process, allowing the infant to pass through the birth canal more easily while ensuring essential neurological development. This proportion gradually changes as the body grows at a faster rate during infancy and childhood.
