How do I log a growth measurement?
Family → child → Growth → Add a measurement. Or tell Happyly — "weight 7.4kg, length 65cm at today's check-up" works in one go.
Growth measurements record weight, length / height, and head circumference at a single moment in time. Most parents log them after a pediatrician visit.
From the Family page.
- Family → tap your child → Growth.
- Tap Add a measurement.
- Enter any combination of weight, length, and head circumference. Empty fields are skipped.
- Date defaults to today; tap to pick a different date for back-filling.
- Save.
From chat.
Just paste what the pediatrician told you: "Aria's check-up: 7.4kg, 65cm." Happyly reads it and offers a one-tap confirmation.
Units.
Happyly stores everything in metric internally. The display unit (kg vs lb, cm vs in) is set in My Account → Preferences → Units. Switching units never changes stored values — just the display.
Charts.
After you've logged at least two measurements, the Growth page shows trend lines against neutral WHO reference bands. The bands are reference, not a score — Happyly doesn't interpret or rank your measurements. That conversation belongs with your pediatrician.
