Pregnancy Due Date Calculator
Medically, the Due Date or the expected date of delivery (EDD) is calculated by taking the first day of your last normal menstrual period (LMP) as the starting point. The pregnancy lasts for 280 days, i.e. 10 pregnancy months (each month = 28 days, i.e. 40 weeks).
The Due Date is just an expected one and about 50% expectant mothers do not deliver on that day. It is normal to deliver in three weeks before or 2 weeks after that. In fact, there are many ways to calculate the expected date of delivery (EDD), and you can reckon on your own.

Calculate with LMP
Adding 9 months or subtracting 3 months, and adding 7 days to the first day of the last menstrual period, you will get your EDD.For example:
The last menstrual period first date was Feb. 1st, 2019.Day: 1 + 7 = 8
Month:2+9=11
EDD Date: Nov. 8, 2019
