The Bebe is three months old now and 12 pounds and 60 cm so it seems that he is just about 50% across the board according to US standards. Interestingly, this makes him a rather large Guatemalan baby.

<p>The Bebe is three months old now and 12 pounds and 60 cm so it seems that he is just about 50% across the board according to <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nhanes/growthcharts/set2clinical/set2color.pdf">US standards</a>. Interestingly, this makes him a rather large Guatemalan baby.  <span id="more-52291"></span></p>
<p>Typical head circumference for Guatemalan boys is different than US children.  If our son has a circumference of 39.7 he falls into the <a href="http://homepage.mac.com/fmontiel/HeadCircumferenceBoys.htm">50th percentile</a>, which is typical for Guatemalan children.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.adoptmed.org/topics/growth-charts.html">Adoptmed.org</a> has a fabulous site for growth charts from several countries.</p>
<p>We are still waiting for Family Court to finish, as the social worker in Guatemala is still working on it. And, we are still waiting for DNA to finish with the US Embassy. After that we will enter <a href="http://www.internationaladoptionstories.com/pgn-in-guatemala.htm">PGN.  </a></p>
