How your due date is estimated

A full-term pregnancy lasts approximately 40 weeks (280 days) from the first day of your last menstrual period. This is Naegele's Rule — the standard method used worldwide by obstetricians and midwives.

Only 5% of babies arrive on their due date

The due date is an estimate. Most babies are born within two weeks either side (between 38 and 42 weeks). Birth before 37 weeks is premature; after 42 weeks is post-term.

Your healthcare provider will confirm your due date via an ultrasound scan, usually performed between 8 and 13 weeks. This is more accurate than date-based calculation alone.

Key milestones to plan for

  • Booking appointment — before 10 weeks
  • 12-week scan (nuchal translucency)
  • 20-week morphology scan
  • Third trimester appointments from 28 weeks
