    I just done that and it said;

    You will probably gain 11.3 kgs - 15.9 kgs during your pregnancy.
    If you gained the average of the range above, this is where the weight would go (totals are rounded):

    You:
    Uterus 1.1 kgs
    Breasts 0.5 kgs
    Blood 1.4 kgs
    Water 1.9 kgs
    Fat 3.8 kgs
    Subtotal 8.6 kgs

    Your baby:

    Fetus 3.4 kgs
    Placenta 0.7 kgs
    Amniotic Fluid 0.9 kgs
    Subtotal 5.0 kgs
    Total 13.6 kgs

    Not sure how accurate it is but I will let you all know lol! So far I have only put on about 1kg and I am 20weeks. If my baby only weighs 3.4kgs how many pounds is that?

    Edited because I found out how to work it out and apparently I'm going to have a 7.4pound baby. Will be interesting to see how accurate it is.

    I honestly can't seeing myself gaining the amount of weight it told me I would but hey you never know I may be suprised. So far my whole family and relatives who have had children have gained very little weight. Fingers crossed I am the same!

    Thanks for the link that's a good one.

    I entered my details and i got the exact same results as you Serenitylee, we must have been the same height and weight to begin with!?

    I'm 36 weeks and i'll confimr with the dr tomorrow but i think i've put on around 10-11kg maybe...

    Oh that is really interesting! Not that inaccurate then Kirst29. Now you just have to let us know how many pounds your baby is when he/she is born

    I also got the same weight gain range. But I think it is based upon your BMI rather than your exact height/weight. Also, I think the babies weight is just an average. I wanted to see, so added an extra 15 kgs to my weight and it said I would only gain 6 kg, but the babies details didn't change.
