Want to know your most likely due date? Your gynaecologist might have an answer. Or you might want to use our due date calculator to get the approximate date of birth (if you have the day of conception).

Due date calculator: Date of delivery and Week of Pregnancy

Calculating the most accurate due date is somewhat difficult. After all, it is impossible to determine 9 months in advance the specific day your baby will come into the world.

Question: Why is it not possible to calculate the exact due date?

One reason is that you might not know the exact time of conception (fertilisation). However, even if this date is known to you, a number of factors influence pregnancy and fetal growth.

Another reason is the length of the menstrual cycle, irregular menstruation and various hormonal diversions.

A more precise date and also the date of delivery will be determined by the gynaecologist on the basis of a sonographic examination. The date may also be adjusted several times during the pregnancy based on the findings.

But if you are interested in getting at least an approximate due date, our calculator will serve you well. There is a possible variation of plus or minus 2 weeks.

An upside is that the calculator will calculate at least the approximate week of pregnancy for you, which will tell you how many days until delivery.

BUT…

Please remember: physiological childbirth is from the 38th to the 42nd week of pregnancy. What is your date of delivery within this period? Bear in mind that it is much more important that everything goes well.

The secondary medical school in Nitra gave me the basis for my career in the field of health and diseases. Thanks to it, I worked for 2 years in the traumatology clinic and outpatient clinic at the Nitra Hospital. Since 2006 I was employed in the emergency medical service, where I stayed until 2017. I completed my bachelor's degree at the University of Constantine the Philosopher in Nitra in the field of emergency health care. The bachelor's degree allowed me to continue my mission as a paramedic. In the meantime, I got a job at the emergency line 155. I have been working in pre-hospital health care until today. I had an interest in people, health and even diseases in my childhood, which gave me the prerequisite to pursue this topic in adulthood. Studying and acquiring new information in practice provided me with a great basis for writing professional texts, in the form of articles that can be understood by ordinary people. Thus, my interest in the Health Portal has a solid foundation in years of practice and personal interest. Similarly, I am also interested in healthy eating, nutrition and overall healthy lifestyle. I fill my free time with family and sports.
