About the Pregnancy Due Date Calculator
Estimate a due date from the first day of the last menstrual period. The Pregnancy Due Date Calculator is intended to make this calculation transparent: you provide First day of last menstrual period, submit the form, and the page shows the result without requiring an account. The calculation runs in your browser, so you can change an input and compare scenarios immediately.
How to use this calculator
- Read each field label and enter values in the units shown.
- Check that every required field contains a realistic number. Avoid commas or symbols unless the field accepts them.
- Select any available option that matches your situation, then choose Calculate.
- Review the result and the units together. Change one value at a time when comparing alternatives.
Understanding the result
This result is an educational estimate, not a diagnosis or personal medical recommendation. Age, health history, pregnancy, medication and clinical circumstances can change what is appropriate; consult a qualified professional when needed. A calculator is most useful when its assumptions match the question you are asking. If your source data is approximate, treat the output as approximate too.
Worked-use example
For a last menstrual period starting 1 January 2026, adding the standard 280 days gives 8 October 2026. A clinician may date a pregnancy differently.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Mixing units, such as entering centimetres where metres are requested.
- Using a percentage as a whole number when the context expects a decimal, or the reverse.
- Rounding every intermediate value instead of rounding the final answer.
- Treating an estimate as a quotation, diagnosis, official record or professional instruction.
