Baby Due Date Calculator Babymed

Calculating your baby's due date is essential for tracking pregnancy milestones and planning for delivery. This calculator helps you determine your estimated due date based on your last menstrual period (LMP) or ultrasound date.

How to Use This Calculator

To calculate your baby's due date:

Select whether you want to use your last menstrual period (LMP) or ultrasound date.
Enter the date of your last menstrual period or the date of your ultrasound.
Click "Calculate" to see your estimated due date.

The calculator will display your due date, along with important pregnancy milestones.

How the Due Date is Calculated

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 = LMP Date + 280 days

If you have an ultrasound date, the calculator will use that instead of the LMP date. The ultrasound date is typically more accurate than the LMP date.
