What Is Pregnancy Due Date?
A pregnancy due date calculator provides an estimated timeline for when your baby is likely to be born. While only about 5% of babies are born exactly on their predicted due date, having an accurate estimate is essential for monitoring fetal development and planning for your new arrival.
How is the Due Date Calculated?
Most medical professionals and calculators (including this one) use a standard formula known as Naegele's Rule. This formula assumes a standard 28-day menstrual cycle and a 40-week gestation period.
- Step 1: Identify the first day of your Last Menstrual Period (LMP).
- Step 2: Add one year to that date.
- Step 3: Subtract three months.
- Step 4: Add seven days.
When to Consult a Doctor
This calculator provides a highly accurate mathematical estimate, but your healthcare provider may adjust your official due date later during your pregnancy based on early ultrasound measurements, which can track the physical size of the fetus more precisely.
