About This Tool
Your estimated due date (EDD) is calculated by adding 280 days (40 weeks) to the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP). This is based on Naegele's Rule, the most widely used method by healthcare providers.
Keep in mind that only about 5% of babies are born on their exact due date — most arrive within two weeks before or after.

Your Pregnancy Trimester by Trimester
Each trimester brings major changes for you and your baby. Here is what to expect at each stage.
T1
First Trimester (Weeks 1–13)
Your baby grows from a single cell to a 7cm foetus. Major organs form. Many women experience morning sickness, fatigue, and breast tenderness. Key tasks: confirm pregnancy with OB, schedule first antenatal appointment, take folic acid, avoid alcohol, limit caffeine.
T2
Second Trimester (Weeks 14–27)
The "golden trimester" - Energy returns, morning sickness eases. You will feel baby's first movements (quickening) around weeks 18–22. Key tasks: anomaly scan at 18–22 weeks, glucose screening at 24–28 weeks, track weight gain, plan your hospital choice.
T3
Third Trimester (Weeks 28–40)
Baby gains weight rapidly and prepares for birth. Braxton Hicks contractions are common. Key tasks: hospital bag packed by week 36, birth plan written, learn to time contractions, install car seat, Group B Strep test at 35–37 weeks.

Due date - But only 5% of babies arrive on the dot
The standard method is Naegele's Rule: add 280 days (40 weeks) to the first day of your last menstrual period. This assumes a 28-day cycle with ovulation on day 14. If your cycle is longer or shorter, your dates may differ. An early ultrasound (6–10 weeks) gives the most accurate EDD and is used to confirm or adjust your date.
Only 5% of babies are born on their due date. 80% of births happen between weeks 38 and 42. Your EDD is a planning target, not a deadline. The Pregnancy Hub has everything you need to prepare.
