How To Estimate Pregnancy Due Date?

Use the first day of your last menstrual period

Add 40 weeks, or 280 days, to that date

If your cycles are not 28 days, adjust based on cycle length

Use an early ultrasound for a more accurate estimate

Count from the date of conception if you know it

Ask a healthcare provider to confirm the due date

Remember that only a small number of babies are born exactly on the due date
