How to use the Gestational Age Calculator

  1. Choose which date you know: last period, due date or conception.
  2. Enter the date, and your cycle length if it is not 28 days.
  3. Press Calculate to see how far along you are and the key dates.

Formula and method

Naegele’s rule: due date = first day of last period + 280 days (40 weeks), adjusted by (cycle length – 28) days. Conception is about 14 days after the last period in a 28-day cycle, so due date = conception + 266 days. Gestational age = today minus the first day of the last period.

Gestational age versus fetal age

Gestational age counts from your last period. Fetal (conceptional) age counts from conception and is about two weeks shorter, which is why a baby at 12 weeks of gestation is really 10 weeks old.
