    Abstract:
    The weights, heights, skull and chest circumferences and biparietal diameters were measured in 7,905 newborns in 1972, in the 5 maternity hospitals of Lyon. These data were studied with respect to the gestational ages of the children and according to the usual weights, heights and weight gains of the mothers. The evolution of these parameters was compared to each other; tentative explanations are given.
