Baby Gender Due Date Calculator
This baby gender due date calculator helps you estimate your baby's due date and learn about gender prediction methods. While due dates are typically calculated based on the first day of your last menstrual period, some methods attempt to predict baby's gender based on ultrasound measurements.

Note: Gender prediction methods are not scientifically proven and should be taken with caution. Always consult with a healthcare professional for medical advice.
How Gender Prediction Works
Several methods claim to predict baby's gender based on ultrasound measurements:
- Nuchal Translucency (NT) Measurement: Some methods suggest that thicker nuchal translucency may indicate a higher likelihood of having a girl.
- Femur Length Ratio: Comparing the length of the baby's femur bones may suggest gender.
- Crown-Rump Length: Some methods use the crown-rump length measurement to predict gender.
Formula Used: The calculator uses standard due date calculation based on the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP). Gender prediction is based on the provided ultrasound measurements if entered.
It's important to note that these methods are not scientifically validated and should not be used as definitive gender prediction tools. Always consult with a healthcare professional for accurate information.
Accuracy of Gender Prediction
The accuracy of gender prediction methods varies and is not scientifically proven. Some studies suggest that these methods may have a success rate of around 50-60%, which is no better than random guessing.
For the most accurate information, always consult with a healthcare professional during your prenatal visits.
