Formula Used

The Omni Baby Weight Calculator uses a modified version of the Hadlock formula, which is commonly used for fetal weight estimation:

Estimated Fetal Weight (grams) = (Mother's Height (cm) × 2.5) + (Pregnancy Week × 50)

This formula provides a reasonable estimate based on maternal height and gestational age. The calculator converts the result to both grams and ounces for convenience.

Interpreting Results

The estimated weight helps you track your baby's growth, but remember:

Early pregnancy estimates are less accurate
Weight changes can indicate health concerns
Consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice

Pregnancy Week	Typical Weight Range	Notes
1-12	0.5-2 grams	Implantation and early development
13-20	5-20 grams	Organ formation begins
21-28	25-100 grams	Limb development
29-36	100-500 grams	Rapid growth phase
37-40	500-1000 grams	Preparation for birth

Worked Examples

Example 1: Early Pregnancy

Mother's height: 165 cm
Pregnancy week: 12

(165 × 2.5) + (12 × 50) = 412.5 + 600 = 1012.5 grams (35.7 oz)

This is a reasonable estimate for early pregnancy when the baby is still small.

Example 2: Mid-Pregnancy

Mother's height: 170 cm
Pregnancy week: 28

(170 × 2.5) + (28 × 50) = 425 + 1400 = 1825 grams (64.4 oz)

This estimate suggests a healthy baby weight at this stage of development.
