Pregnancy Due Date Calculator

Estimate a due date and current gestational week from calendar dates

days
The difference from a 28-day cycle shifts the calendar estimate.

How the due date is estimated

The starting point is the first day of the last menstrual period. For a 28-day cycle, 280 days are added; the difference in cycle length shifts both due date and estimated conception.

How gestational weeks are counted

Counting begins with the last period, roughly two weeks before conception. A notation such as 12+3 means twelve completed weeks and three additional days.

A due date represents a range

The calculated day is not a precise prediction. Cycle variation and uncertainty about the period date can shift the estimate. Treat the date as orientation and discuss medical questions with a qualified clinician.

Irregular cycles, IVF, and ultrasound

Calendar dating is less reliable with irregular cycles. IVF dates and clinician-led ultrasound dating use different information and are not converted here. A medical dating assessment takes priority.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the due date calculated?
The calculator adds 280 days to the first day of the last period, plus the cycle-length difference from 28 days.
What does 12+3 mean?
Twelve gestational weeks are complete, followed by three additional days.
How accurate is the calculated due date?
It is an orientation point, not an exact prediction. The period date and ovulation timing may differ.
What if my cycle is irregular?
Calendar dating is less reliable because an average cycle may not represent actual ovulation timing.
Can I calculate from conception or IVF?
This form starts only from the last period. IVF dating should follow the treatment team's dates.
When does medical dating take priority?
A due date established or revised by a qualified clinician using history and ultrasound takes priority.
