Weeks, not months

Doctors, scan reports and antenatal cards describe a pregnancy in weeks and days, written like 15+6 or 15w6d, because a lot changes from one week to the next and months are too uneven to be useful. The count starts on the first day of the last menstrual period and runs to 40 weeks, the estimated due date. This tool turns either your last period date or your due date into today's exact week and day, the trimester, the days left, how much of the 40 weeks has passed, and a list of the general milestones most pregnancies go through.

How to use it

  1. Choose whether you know the first day of your last period or your due date. If a doctor has given you a due date from a scan, use that, because it is usually the more accurate one.
  2. Enter the date. For the period option, enter your usual cycle length too.
  3. Read the result and look down the milestone list. The rows marked Now are the ones that apply this week.

"Week 16" and "15 weeks 6 days" are the same day

This is the most common source of confusion. At 15 weeks and 6 days you have completed 15 weeks and are partway through your 16th week, so apps and people may say either "15 weeks pregnant" or "in week 16". The calculator shows both: the large figure is the week you are in, and Exactly shows the completed weeks and days that doctors write down.

How it is worked out

From a last period date, the due date is that date plus 280 days, moved later or earlier by your cycle length minus 28. From a due date, it is used as given. Gestational age today is then 280 days minus the days left until the due date. The first trimester runs to 13 weeks 6 days, the second from 14 weeks to 27 weeks 6 days, and the third from 28 weeks to birth. The percentage is simply the days so far divided by 280.

A worked example

Your doctor has told you the due date is 20 April 2027. On 2 November 2026 there are 169 days to go, so the gestational age is 280 - 169 = 111 days, which is 15 weeks and 6 days. You are in week 16 of the second trimester and 39.6% of the way through the 40 weeks. The next day you reach 16 weeks exactly.

About the milestone list

The list holds broad, commonly used time windows, such as the first trimester scan around 11 to 14 weeks, the anomaly scan around 18 to 22 weeks and screening for gestational diabetes around 24 to 28 weeks. Your clinic may schedule things differently, and every pregnancy is different; feeling movement earlier or later than a friend did is usually nothing unusual. The term labels follow the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists definitions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many weeks pregnant am I?
Enter the first day of your last period or your due date. The calculator shows your completed weeks and days, such as 15 weeks 6 days, and the week you are in, here week 16.
Is 15 weeks 6 days the same as week 16?
Yes. After 15 full weeks and 6 days you are partway through your 16th week. Doctors usually write the completed weeks and days, while apps often say the week you are in.
Should I use my last period or my due date?
If a doctor has given you a due date from an ultrasound scan, use that, because it is usually more accurate than a date based on your last period.
When do the trimesters start and end?
The first trimester runs to 13 weeks 6 days, the second from 14 weeks to 27 weeks 6 days, and the third from 28 weeks until birth.
Are the milestone weeks exact?
No. They are broad, commonly used windows. Your clinic may schedule scans and tests differently, so follow the plan your doctor or midwife gives you.
