Importance of Due Date Calculator
Each and every management step of your pregnancy will totally depend on the Estimated/Expected Date of Delivery. Therefore it is essential to get the correct details of your due date. Unless you would face many difficulties with the timing of most of the management of your pregnancy.
We have planned our Due Date Calculator to overcome all these issues and give you exactly the correct date for your baby’s delivery. This is a Pregnancy Calculator made with the help of Naegele’s formula.
Method of use in Expected Date of Delivery Calculator
We have a lot of pregnancy due date calculators and calculating techniques. But whatever the method, we use the same concept of estimating your delivery date. That is “Modified Naegele’s formula,” which expresses that the EDD would be 280 days from the Last menstrual period (LMP).
Therefore this calculator can be named “Naegele’s Due Date Calculator.”
Potentials of Due date Calculator
As discussed earlier, the due date is fundamental to every management of pregnancy. Therefore, calculating the due pregnancy date is essential to every pregnancy.
Here we estimate that every baby will be delivered in 280days after conception. So each baby is planned to be delivered in 40 weeks in default. This calculator allows you to have access to your due date online.
With Our calculator, you can also identify your date of conception duration of each trimester.
