Due Date Calculator: Using the calculator

In using the calculator or estimator, have it at the back of your mind that a lot of pregnancies will go the full forty (40) weeks, so when estimating the expected date you have to consider other factors and variables.

For example, majority of mothers do not know that the very first fourteen (14) days of their pregnancies are inclusive of their ovulation and their menstruation stages. Because of this, a lot of women never get to know they have taken seed until they miss their period. By that time, they would have entered their fourth to fifth week into the pregnancy.

The implication of this is that, if you do an estimate from the day you do a pregnancy test, it is unlikely that you will get a good estimate. Even if you choose to add some weeks to make room for the ovulation, it wouldn’t get you the right answer. What it means is that, it is not possible to know how you have progressed into the pregnancy!
