About this pregnancy due date calculator

The most widely used estimate, Naegele rule, adds 280 days (40 weeks) to the first day of your last period to predict the due date. It assumes a regular 28-day cycle with ovulation on day 14. About 5% of babies arrive exactly on the estimated date — the rest arrive within a two-week window before or after.

This calculator also reports your current pregnancy week and trimester. Your clinician will refine the date with an ultrasound, especially if your cycles are irregular. The first-trimester scan (typically at 8–12 weeks) is the most accurate way to date a pregnancy.

The trimesters split: first trimester ends at 13 weeks, second runs 14 to 26 weeks, third runs 27 weeks until delivery. Different things happen in each trimester and many prenatal milestones (screening tests, anatomy scan, glucose tolerance test) are tied to specific weeks.

How to use it

  1. Find the first day of your last menstrual period.
  2. Enter that date.
  3. Read your estimated due date, your current week and your trimester.
  4. Use this as a starting point — your clinician will refine with an ultrasound.

Tips & notes

  • If you do not remember the LMP exactly, an early ultrasound is the most accurate way to date the pregnancy.
  • Most clinicians track "weeks pregnant" rather than months. Week 12 is roughly the end of the first trimester.
  • A range of "term" is 37 to 42 weeks. Anything before 37 weeks is considered preterm; after 42 is post-term.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the LMP method?

Within about a week for women with regular 28-day cycles. For irregular cycles or unknown LMP, an early ultrasound is more accurate.

Why is pregnancy measured from the last period rather than conception?

Because conception date is rarely known precisely, while LMP usually is. The 280-day count actually includes about two weeks before conception — a quirk of the convention.

What happens after the due date passes?

Most clinicians will discuss induction options once you pass 41–42 weeks. The exact protocol varies by country and provider.
