Conception Date to Due Date Calculation Guide

When conception date is known, due-date estimation can use a direct day-count method. This article explains the exact process.

How to calculate using Pregnancy Due Date Calculator

  • Choose method: LMP-based or conception-date-based estimation.
  • Enter date and cycle length when using LMP mode.
  • Use output as planning estimate and confirm with clinical care.

Pregnancy Due Date Calculator formula

  • LMP method: due date ≈ LMP + 280 days (adjusted by cycle length).
  • Conception method: due date ≈ conception date + 266 days.
  • Pregnancy week estimate uses days elapsed against 40-week baseline.

Worked example

  • If LMP is Jan 1 with 28-day cycle, due date is around early October.
  • For conception-date method, add 266 days directly.
  • Compare with scan-based estimate during prenatal care.

Accuracy and interpretation notes

  • This is not a medical diagnosis tool.
  • Ultrasound dating may adjust estimated due date.
