Understanding Your Pregnancy Timeline

Pregnancy is a transformative journey that lasts approximately 40 weeks, starting from the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP). While a standard cycle is 28 days, this calculator allows you to adjust for your unique cycle length to provide a more accurate estimated due date (EDD).

How is the Due Date Calculated?

Medical professionals use "Naegele's Rule" as a standard. It assumes a 28-day cycle and adds 280 days (40 weeks) to your LMP. Our calculator refines this by adding or subtracting days if your cycle is longer or shorter than 28 days. For example, if you have a 30-day cycle, your ovulation likely occurred two days later, so we adjust your due date accordingly.

The Three Trimesters

  • First Trimester (Weeks 1-12): A period of rapid cell division and organ formation. By the end of this trimester, all major organs have begun to form.
  • Second Trimester (Weeks 13-26): Often called the "honeymoon phase." Morning sickness usually fades, and you will begin to feel the baby's first kicks (quickening).
  • Third Trimester (Weeks 27-40): The final stretch where the baby gains weight rapidly and the lungs mature in preparation for birth.

Weekly Milestones and Baby Size

Every week brings new changes. In the early weeks (4-6), the heart begins to beat. By week 20, you are halfway there, and the baby is roughly the size of a banana. By week 37, the pregnancy is considered "early term," and the baby is ready to meet the world any day!

Important Considerations

Remember that only about 4% of babies are born on their exact due date. Most babies arrive between 37 and 42 weeks. This calculator is for educational purposes and should not replace the advice of your obstetrician or midwife.
