Pregnancy Due Date Calculator

How to Calculate Your Pregnancy Due Date Online for Free

Expecting a baby is an exciting journey, and knowing your estimated due date is a key milestone for parents-to-be in the USA. Our Pregnancy Due Date Calculator helps you calculate your due date based on your last menstrual period (LMP) or conception date, using standard medical calculations. Optimized for American users, it supports the MM/DD/YYYY date format commonly used in the USA.

Why Use Our Pregnancy Due Date Calculator?

• USA-Friendly Format: Uses MM/DD/YYYY date format, standard in the USA.
• Accurate Calculations: Based on medical standards (40 weeks from LMP or 38 weeks from conception).
• Flexible Options: Calculate using either LMP or conception date.
• Pregnancy Insights: Provides estimated due date, conception date (if using LMP), and current pregnancy week.
• Shareable Results: Share your due date on Twitter, Facebook, or WhatsApp.
• Mobile-Friendly: Works seamlessly on all devices, from smartphones to desktops.

How It Works

A full-term pregnancy typically lasts 40 weeks (280 days) from the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP) or 38 weeks (266 days) from conception, as per the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG). Our calculator uses these standards:

• LMP Method: Adds 280 days to the first day of your last period.
• Conception Method: Adds 266 days to the conception date.

Enter your LMP or conception date in MM/DD/YYYY format. The tool calculates your estimated due date, current pregnancy week, and (for LMP) the approximate conception date. Results are displayed instantly in a user-friendly format.

Use Cases for American Users

Our Pregnancy Due Date Calculator is ideal for:

• Planning prenatal appointments and preparing for delivery.
• Tracking pregnancy milestones, such as trimesters.
• Sharing exciting news with family and friends.
• Preparing for maternity leave or baby showers in the USA.

Understanding Pregnancy Due Dates

The due date is an estimate, as only about 4% of babies are born exactly on their due date. Most deliveries occur between 37 and 42 weeks. The LMP method assumes a 28-day menstrual cycle with ovulation on day 14, estimating conception about two weeks after the LMP. If you know your conception date (e.g., from fertility treatments), the conception method provides a more precise estimate. Our calculator also shows your current pregnancy week, helping you track your progress.

For example:

• LMP on 01/01/2025 → Due date: 10/08/2025 (October 8, 2025).
• Conception on 01/15/2025 → Due date: 10/08/2025 (October 8, 2025).

Pregnancy Tips for Expecting Parents
