Editorial Standards & Review Process

At NurtureCalc, we believe that every new mother deserves clear, trustworthy answers. Our goal is to simplify complex health data without sacrificing medical accuracy.

Our Sourcing Standards

Every piece of content on NurtureCalc is grounded in academic and clinical research. We prioritize high-integrity, peer-reviewed sources and guidelines from global health authorities, including:

• World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines on infant growth and nutrition.
• National Health Service (NHS) clinical pathways for postnatal recovery.
• American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) clinical updates.
• Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine (ABM) protocols.
• Published research in peer-reviewed journals such as The Lancet and the Journal of Obstetric, Gynecologic & Neonatal Nursing.

Medical Review & Accuracy

Our calculators and articles are built using established clinical parameters—such as the Mifflin-St Jeor formula for metabolic calculations and WHO multicentre growth reference studies for percentile tracking.

Policy on Medical Information: We do not offer personal medical diagnoses. Instead, we use established clinical guidelines to provide informational ranges and timelines that help you talk to your own doctor with more confidence.

Content Update Policy

Medical guidance evolves. To ensure you are receiving the most current information, our core clinical pages and calculators undergo a thorough review every 6 months. If a major health body (like the WHO or ACOG) issues a significant guideline change, we prioritize updating affected content within 30 days.
