Did you know?

Maintaining a healthy weight is important for overall health. In addition to BMI, healthcare providers use other measurements and factors - such as skinfold thickness, waist circumference, and diet - to assess a person’s health status.

Professional Tips & Best Practices

Target Ranges: Provides pre-pregnancy categories (Underweight, Normal, Overweight, Obese) to identify recommended weight gain margins.

Do Not Calculate Mid-Pregnancy: Standard BMI equations do not account for gestational weight and should not be used mid-pregnancy.

Prenatal Care: Coordinate calculations with your obstetrician's customized nutritional checklists.
