  • Gestational age at birth: weeks and days, e.g. 39 2/7 (39+2 also works)
  • Weight: grams. For pounds and ounces, enter e.g. 8-4 for 8 lb 4 oz
  • Head circumference and length: cm. For inches, enter e.g. 20"
  • WHO SD23 correction recommended; only unselect if plain LMS calculations wanted beyond ±3 SD. See Sources and methods for more information.

Fenton 2025 size at birth, 22 3/7 to 42 3/7 weeks

Newborn infants, 22 3/7 to 42 3/7 weeks at birth: weight, length and head circumference at birth. An approximation of the authors' own size-at-birth calculator.

Size at birth from the meta-analysis behind the Fenton 2025 growth chart. The authors describe the two as the same up to about 37 weeks.

This calculator approximates the Fenton 2025 size-at-birth calculator at fentongrowth.ca, which remains the authoritative source. PediTools offers this version as a convenience.

Weight Z-scores beyond ±3 use WHO's restricted LMS method, as in the authors' calculator.
