🧮 Formula Calculator

Calculate daily formula needs based on your baby's weight and age. For full-term newborns, preemies, and growing infants. Save multiple profiles for twins or siblings.

How to Use This Tool

  1. Enter your baby's name (optional, for saving profiles)
  2. Enter current weight in kg or pounds
  3. Select age range — preemies use different calculations
  4. Click Calculate to see daily and per-feeding amounts
  5. Save the profile for quick reference later

Note: This is a starting point. Every baby is different. Adjust based on hunger cues, weight gain, and your pediatrician's advice.

Understanding the Results

This calculator uses standard pediatric nutrition guidelines:

  • Preemies: 150-180 ml per kg per day (higher needs for catch-up growth)
  • Newborns: 150 ml per kg per day
  • Infants 1-6m: 120-150 ml per kg per day
  • Older infants: 100-120 ml per kg per day (solids reduce formula need)
