📘 About the Due Date

Your estimated due date is the date your pregnancy reaches 40 weeks, counted from the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP) rather than from conception. This calculator uses Naegele's rule, the method doctors have used since 1812 and still use today.

Enter the first day of your last period and your average cycle length to see your due date, roughly when you conceived, and how far along you are right now.

🧮 Formula

Due date
Due date = LMP + 280 days + (cycle length − 28)
Conception date
Conception ≈ LMP + cycle length − 14
Current week
Week = (today − LMP) ÷ 7, rounded down

Where

  • LMP = first day of your last menstrual period
  • Cycle length = your average cycle length in days (28 is average)
  • 280 days = 40 weeks, the average length of pregnancy counted from LMP
This assumes a 28-day cycle with ovulation on day 14. If your cycle runs longer or shorter, the cycle-length adjustment shifts the due date accordingly.

💡 How accurate is this?

Naegele's rule is accurate to within about 2 weeks for roughly 70% of pregnancies. It assumes a regular 28-day cycle with ovulation on day 14, which does not hold for everyone.

An early first-trimester ultrasound, usually between 8 and 14 weeks, is more accurate and is what your doctor will most likely use to confirm or adjust the date.

❓ Frequently asked questions

Why is pregnancy counted from my last period, not conception?

The date of your last period is usually known exactly, while the date of conception is not. Counting from LMP keeps dating consistent across pregnancies.

What if my cycle is not 28 days?

Enter your actual average cycle length. A longer cycle shifts the due date later; a shorter cycle shifts it earlier.

Will I actually deliver on this date?

Only about 4–5% of babies are born on their exact due date. Most arrive within two weeks either side of it.

How is the due date calculated?

Add 280 days (40 weeks) to the first day of your last period, then adjust by the number of days your cycle is longer or shorter than 28.

Can I calculate my due date from the conception date?

Yes — add 266 days (38 weeks) to the conception date.
