Formula Used

The calculator uses the following formulas:

If calculating from last menstrual period (LMP): Due Date = LMP + 280 days If calculating from ultrasound date: Due Date = Ultrasound Date + (40 weeks - Gestational Age in Weeks) × 7 days

These formulas are based on standard pregnancy duration averages. Individual pregnancies may vary.

Worked Example

Let's say your last menstrual period was on January 1, 2023:

  1. Select "Last Menstrual Period" as the calculation method.
  2. Enter January 1, 2023 in the date field.
  3. Click "Calculate".

The calculator will add 280 days to January 1, 2023, resulting in October 28, 2023 as your estimated due date.

Interpreting Results

The estimated due date provided by this calculator is an average. Actual due dates can vary by several days. Here's what the different calculation methods mean:

  • Last Menstrual Period (LMP): This method adds 280 days to your first day of your last menstrual period. It's a common estimation method but can be less accurate than ultrasound-based calculations.
  • Ultrasound Date: This method uses your baby's gestational age at the time of the ultrasound to calculate a more precise due date.

For the most accurate due date, consult with your healthcare provider, who may use additional factors like your menstrual cycle length and ultrasound measurements.
