Host: Dr. Avani Hegde, Pediatrician & Pediatric Endocrinologist
Description:
In this episode of Tiny Talks, Dr. Avani Hegde addresses a concern shared by almost every parent — Is my child growing normally?
Growth is a key indicator of a child’s overall health, but understanding what’s “normal” can be confusing. Dr. Avani explains how pediatricians use growth charts to track height, weight, and head circumference, and why maintaining a consistent growth pattern matters more than the numbers alone.
She also highlights signs parents should watch out for — like clothes not getting tighter, or your child looking smaller than peers — and when it’s time to consult a doctor. Whether it’s late blooming or an underlying health concern, early awareness makes all the difference.
“Every child has their own pace — but it’s our job to make sure they’re on the right path.”
Tune in for insights that help you support your child’s growth journey with confidence.
