Pregnancy & baby calculators

6 free tools

The dates and numbers that come up the moment two lines show up on a test. Work out when conception likely happened, what week you're in today, how a due date maps back to your last period, and roughly what that first year of diapers and daycare adds up to.

Frequently asked questions

How are pregnancy due dates calculated?

The standard rule (Naegele's rule) adds 280 days — 40 weeks — to the first day of your last menstrual period. That assumes a regular 28-day cycle, so an early ultrasound often adjusts the date a little.

Why is pregnancy counted from the last period, not conception?

Most people know when their last period started but not the exact day they conceived. Counting from the last period gives a consistent starting line, which is why you're technically 'two weeks pregnant' before conception even happens.

Are these calculators a substitute for a doctor?

No — they're quick estimates to help you plan. Ultrasound dating and your provider's guidance are what actually matter, especially if your cycle is irregular or you're using IVF.
