Pregnancy Weight Gain Calculator

A pregnancy weight calculator can help expectant mothers stay on track with their weight gain goals and ensure a healthy pregnancy.
Here is the formula used by many pregnancy weight calculators:

Weight Gain = (Weeks Pregnant / 4) * (Activity Factor)

Activity Factor is:
Sedentary: 0.5
Moderate: 0.6
Active: 0.7

BMI = (Pre-Pregnancy Weight in Pounds x 703) / (Height in Inches x Height in Inches)

Where :-

  • Pre-Pregnancy Weight: the weight of the mother before pregnancy in pounds
  • Weeks Pregnant: the number of weeks of gestation
  • Height: the height of the mother in inches
  • Activity Factor: a factor based on the mother's activity level
