How to use the due date calculator

Choose what you know and enter the date — your gestational age and estimated due date appear instantly. Most people use the first day of their last menstrual period (LMP). If you know your ovulation or conception date, that can be more precise; if your doctor or midwife has already given you a due date (often adjusted after an early ultrasound), choose "I know my due date" to track your weeks from it. The table below converts the usual prenatal test windows into your own calendar dates.

How pregnancy weeks are counted

Pregnancy is dated from the first day of your last period, not from conception — that day is 0 weeks 0 days. Conception typically happens about two weeks later, which is why many people are already "4 or 5 weeks pregnant" when they get a positive test. "12w 3d" means 12 full weeks plus 3 days, i.e. you're in your 13th week.

Only about 1 in 20 babies arrives exactly on the due date; birth any time from 37 to 42 weeks is considered normal. An early ultrasound measuring the baby (crown-rump length) is the most accurate way to date a pregnancy, so if your provider has given you a due date, use it.

About the prenatal test table

The weeks shown are typical windows for common tests and scans in the US and many other countries. Exactly which tests you're offered — and when — depends on your provider, your age and health, and earlier results; some (like NIPT) are optional.

This is a date calculator, not a medical diagnosis. Always follow the dates and advice of your doctor or midwife. If you have bleeding, severe pain or other worrying symptoms, contact your provider right away.

FAQ

How is my due date calculated?
Add 280 days (40 weeks) to the first day of your last period — this is Naegele's rule. If your cycle is longer or shorter than 28 days, the due date moves by the difference.
How many weeks pregnant am I?
Count the days from the first day of your last period to today and divide by 7: the whole number is weeks and the remainder is days. The calculator shows it as, for example, 12 weeks, 3 days.
Is 4 weeks pregnant 4 weeks after conception?
No. Pregnancy weeks are counted from the last period, and conception usually happens about two weeks later, so 4 weeks pregnant is roughly 2 weeks after conception.
Why is my ultrasound due date different?
Early ultrasounds measure the baby and are often more accurate than the LMP date, so providers may adjust the due date. Use "I know my due date" to track your weeks from it.
How do I calculate my due date after IVF?
For a day-5 blastocyst transfer, add 261 days to the transfer date; for a day-3 transfer, add 263 days. Or enter the egg retrieval date as the conception date.
When does the second trimester start?
The second trimester runs from 14 weeks 0 days to 27 weeks 6 days, and the third trimester starts at 28 weeks.
