Calculating your baby's estimated birth date is an important part of pregnancy planning. This calculator helps you determine the due date based on your last menstrual period (LMP) or conception date. It also provides a pregnancy timeline to help you track your baby's development.
How to Use This Calculator
To calculate your baby's estimated birth date:
- Select whether you want to calculate based on your last menstrual period (LMP) or conception date.
- Enter the date of your last menstrual period or conception date.
- Click the "Calculate" button.
The calculator will display your estimated due date, which is typically calculated as 40 weeks (280 days) after the first day of your last menstrual period. It will also show a pregnancy timeline with important milestones.
How the Calculation Works
The standard pregnancy duration is 40 weeks (280 days) from the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP). The due date is calculated by adding 280 days to the LMP date.
Formula
Due Date = Last Menstrual Period (LMP) + 280 days
For conception date calculation:
Due Date = Conception Date + 266 days
This calculation is based on the average pregnancy duration. Individual pregnancies may vary.

The pregnancy timeline shows important milestones throughout your pregnancy. These milestones are based on the average pregnancy duration and may vary for each individual.
