There are no official growth charts for breastfed babies.  However,
preliminary charts based on the research done to date by the WHO working group
on the growth of breastfed babies are available.  These charts are based upon a
relatively small sample (around 225 babies) and are not adequate for clinical
purposes.  If you want to consult them for research purposes, they are posted
on my web site, at the following URL:
