Due Date Calculator

Estimate a due date

Enter the first day of the last menstrual period, or a known conception date, and the calculator estimates the due date using Naegele's rule (280 days from the last period, or 266 days from conception). It also shows the gestational age today, the trimester and key dates. Today is Monday, October 5, 2026.

An estimate, not advice

Only a small share of babies arrive on their due date. A healthcare provider sets the official date, often confirmed by an early ultrasound. This calculator only does date arithmetic.

How weeks are counted

Gestational age is counted from the first day of the last period, so conception happens at about two weeks.
