or
LMP + 1 year − 3 months + 7 days
LMP: March 10, 2025
→ March 10, 2026 − 3 months = December 10, 2025
→ + 7 days = December 17, 2025
Conception Date Method
When conception date is known (IVF, ovulation kits):
Ultrasound Dating

Due Date = Ultrasound date + Remaining days
Accuracy Comparison
| Method | Accuracy | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| First trimester ultrasound | ±5–7 days | Most accurate |
| Known conception (IVF) | ±1–2 days | Exact date known |
| LMP (regular cycles) | ±10–14 days | Regular cycles |
| LMP (irregular cycles) | ±21+ days | Least reliable |
Pregnancy Timeline & Trimesters
First Trimester (1–12 weeks): Organ formation, heartbeat at 6–7 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Only 4–5% of babies are born on their exact due date. 60% arrive within ±1 week, 90% within ±2 weeks.
If an early ultrasound differs by more than 7 days from LMP, doctors usually the ultrasound date is used.
For cycles longer/shorter than 28 days, add/subtract the difference to the LMP result.
