The amount of pregnancy weight you're recommended to gain depends on where you started out: underweight, at a healthy weight, overweight, or obese (and whether you’re carrying twins or multiples).
This tool will calculate your pre-pregnancy BMI (body mass index), give you a recommendation for pregnancy weight gain, and generate a pregnancy weight gain chart to show how you're tracking toward your target weight range.
But keep in mind that your recommended weight gain may be different depending on your health needs and any pregnancy complications. Especially if you're overweight, obese, or underweight, it's important to talk to your doctor or midwife and use pregnancy weight gain information that's customized for you.
IMPORTANT: The Pregnancy Weight Gain Calculator is a general educational aid only and should not be relied on as a substitute for the monitoring of your weight by your doctor, midwife, or other healthcare providers.
