Mark your calendar: On average, your pregnancy should last around 40 weeks, or 280 days, from your last period. (If it sounds like a long time now, just wait until you're 39 weeks pregnant.) Once you've calculated your pregnancy due date, you'll not only have a goal to focus on, but you'll be able to keep yourself healthy, monitor your baby's development, and prepare for the big day. Our due date calendar helps you figure out exactly when to expect your new baby. Whether he shows up early, late, or right on time is another question.

12/13/2011 11:12:43 PM Report AbuseThe first day of my last period was the 12th of Nov. I am more then sure that I am pregnant and if I am I am only 10 days pregnant which is very frustrating to me because I know when I concieved but it is way too early to take a pregnancy test. I can't wait until the 26th of Dec. because I can finally take a test and even though by then I will be 100% sure I am still excited to see pregnant on the test. EXCITED!!!!

9/17/2011 10:25:38 PM Report AbuseJust got pregnant with my fifth child but I always go early so I only use it as an estimate. So few people deliver on their date anyway. But I did do the chinese gender predictor and got a good laugh. A 50% chance of a boy! Isn't that the standard percentage for each new pregnancy?

1/19/2011 01:54:49 PM Report AbuseMy last period was 9/11/10..My due date is July 1st...My system was a little off :)
1/10/2011 08:33:34 PM Report AbuseHi There, I just went to the Dr Tuesday on Oct 10th and my last period was 8/6 and i am 9 weeks and 5 days
10/14/2010 01:42:28 PM Report AbuseHi every One ...I am pregnant and I forgot my first last period so How am going to know my due? I need help here?
9/26/2010 04:42:40 AM Report AbuseA due date is pretty straight forward. You take your first day of your last period, go back 3 months and add 7 days. This is your due date. Some drs will be within 1 day of that. Most babies in the world are not born on their due date.
9/24/2010 09:59:04 PM Report Abusewell my last period was december 8 2009 and they tell me that my due date is september14 2010 but i dnt know i hope it really is 2morrow

9/12/2010 10:51:49 AM Report AbuseI think this calculator is pretty accurate. The calculator gave a due date of Nov. 6th for my first. The doctor told me Nov. 1st. She was born on Nov. 8th. Calculator wins!
9/10/2010 10:56:14 AM Report AbuseIt was spot on with my first baby 2/5/10 which was my b-day and also my due date :)...this time i can't get it to even pop up so i guess i'll have to wait for the doc to tell me.
9/7/2010 06:06:15 PM Report AbuseDUE DATE IS ONLY AN ESTIMATION BASED ON AN AVERAGE MENSTRUAL CYCLE OF 28 DAYS. IT IS BOUND TO BE DIFFERENT FOR SOME PEOPLE. I ESTIMATED MINE WHEN I HAD MY FIRST BABY AND MY LABOUR STARTED ON MY DUE DATE. THE BABY - MY FIRST- CAME WITHIN 14 HRS AFTER I NOTICED MY LABOUR HAD STARTED.
8/20/2010 08:25:18 AM Report AbuseYes, I agree its pretty accurate. My due date is set for 2/01/2011 and it calculated 01/31/2011.
8/9/2010 02:50:56 PM Report Abusehow can I get ma due date those out there please help
8/9/2010 04:52:10 AM Report AbuseWe'll it seemed pretty close to me. My doctor said my due date is around2.18.2011 and this said 2.15.2011 so pretty close.
8/8/2010 07:36:14 PM Report AbuseI haven't scheduled my first appt. yet for the doc but going off of multiple sites I've been getting 4/4/11, 4/6/11, and 4/8/11 so they are all fairly close and very special dates for me. The 4th is the day after my b-day so I'd push for a day earlier, the 6th is my late sister and the 8th is my mom and dads anniversary.
8/7/2010 06:26:06 PM Report Abusewell i am 41 just find out i am going to have a baby and my due date 4/2/2011
8/4/2010 02:32:06 PM Report Abusei wouldnt worry to much about the callendar being a few days off from what the doc says cuz neither of my kids were even born on the day the doc said they would be born because its all a guessing game anyways. My first son was a week early than my due date and my second son was 2 weeks early than my due date. But both were full term babies.
7/13/2010 10:27:06 AM Report AbuseMy doctor said my due date is September 3, 2010. Who is wrong the doctor or the due date calculator
7/11/2010 02:03:00 PM Report Abuse@.@ but my doctor said my due dat was on 11/27/10. why is it sayinf 11/23/10?? i think its wrong
7/9/2010 11:07:41 PM Report Abusewhen i went to the doctor they told me my due date were augusta the 8 but wen i went to the real doctoor they told me augusta 12,2010 lol so now im 28 weeks now an im 6 months an i got 3 more weeks left to go so im ready now!!!!!!!!!
5/13/2010 08:18:41 AM Report Abusewow really it said i am going to be preg. for 4 years!!!! i think it need a tweaking or 2.
5/7/2010 09:05:25 AM Report Abuse@goddess8762 go to www.mymonthlycycles.com and it has a reverse tracker. You can put your due date in and it will show you the date you conceived.
5/5/2010 09:16:47 AM Report Abusemy last period ended on the 12th of january so when am i due?
5/4/2010 02:44:56 AM Report Abuse4/15/10 - I was 14 weeks on 4/16/10 and we estimate I got pregnant on 1/23/10. It all depends on how long your cycles are. On average add 14 days to the start date of your last period. 5/29/10 would be 40 weeks count backwards to today's date to get your # of weeks pregnant I think you will be 35 weeks this Sunday. Hope that helps!
4/23/2010 05:41:52 PM Report AbuseIt gave me the wrong due date lol. Im due Nov 17th 2010 and it said I am due Aug 20th Wow I wish haha.
4/22/2010 03:57:44 PM Report Abuseuhm what? this thing went all crazy for me. i put in that my lmp was 11/19/2009 and it said i was due 12/1/2012. lol i think i found a glitch!!! im pretty sure im due at the end of august, either that or the doctors are lying about the whole 40 week rule. id hate to be pregnant for over two years, lol.
4/20/2010 11:17:07 PM Report Abuseif im 14 weeks pregnant now todays date is 04/15/10 when did i got pregnant? can someone please help me figure it out ty
4/14/2010 02:48:13 PM Report Abusei need to know how many weeks i am my baby is due may 29 2010
4/13/2010 10:45:36 AM Report AbuseI put in the same date and average days of my cycle and it gave me different due dates one all the way out to 2014. I don't think its working right.
4/9/2010 11:20:28 AM Report AbuseIt was on spot for me exact same date I got when I worked it out, and same as my Dr's.
2/10/2010 05:35:10 AM Report Abuseway off base for me! my doctor gave me a date and i am cool with that.
2/9/2010 05:56:41 PM Report AbuseIt worked the first time I tried it, but then I went back and changed the length of my cycle and then I kept getting really random and bizarre results (with dates such as 2011 or 2012, and the months varying from april to november. I am really due in September.).
2/2/2010 10:29:32 AM Report Abusehmmm it did November fine for me. you could also count back three months from your last period add seven days and thats your due date. ex: LMP November 5th three months back August5th add seven days august 12 is my due date . This calulater says the ninth close enough for me.
1/4/2010 11:23:04 AM Report AbuseI can't get passed date of my last period, the calender only lets me enter for the month of december! grr frustrating
