Hi Andrea,

  I've been around for years. In the early days when we used to do 
stuff on Child Development, we used a text by Conger, Mussen and ...
Try that in a search from some early 1970s Book in Print. In the UK, 
the National Child Development Survey, again in thhe 1970s, produced 
some benchmarks or standards which have been used ever since in 
Education and Health Care.

  Hope these vague suggestions help.

  Best Regards,

Any suggestions for sources that discuss the history/development of
standardized pediatric growth (height and weight) charts?  Thanks in
advance for any help.
