Gaining the recommended amount of weight during pregnancy can support your baby’s well-being and healthy growth. A healthy pregnancy weight gain range is calculated using your pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI). It is an estimated range of weight gain, with upper and lower limits, to suggest what a healthy weight gain might look like along your pregnancy.
The Pregnancy Weight Gain Calculator is a great way to track your progress in pregnancy, but you should regularly consult your healthcare provider to discuss, monitor, and support your pregnancy weight gain goals.
