Abstract
A dynamic prospective examination of 93 newborn was conducted to study the growth trajectories of anthropometric indicators in large for gestational age newborns in the first two years of life. The differences in the speed of the body weight and body weight gain trajectories in large-bodied children in the two-year period dynamice were revealed, including taking into account the gender trai,. Statistically significantly shorter duration of breastfeeding was established in overweight infants at the age of 2 years. Large for gestational age infants at the 2 years age had advanced growth trajectories starting from 3 months of life. The data obtained substantiate the importance of monitoring the trajectories of anthropometric indicators of a child in the first 2 years of life, with a special emphasis on body mass index in the interval from 3 to 12 months of life.
