Adequate Weight Gain

This measure is based on the Institute of Medicine's 1990 recommendations for weight gain during pregnancy. The measure is based upon maternal prepregnancy body mass index and amount of weight gained during pregnancy. The IOM recommendations are as follows:

Prepregnancy BMI: _____ Recommended weight gain:




Less than 19.8 _________ 28 - 40 pounds




19.8 to 26.1 ___________ 25 - 35 pounds




26.1 to 29.1 ___________ 15 - 25 pounds




29.1 or greater _________ 0 - 15 pounds

Weight gain below the recommended amount is considered inadequate. Weight gain above the recommended amount is considered excessive.

Weight gain within the recommended weight gain range has been associated with positive birth outcomes.
