Pregnancy Calculators

Ten free tools for working out dates, timings and measurements — built by a diagnostic ultrasound clinic, with honest limits on what a calculator can tell you.

Every calculator here does arithmetic on dates and measurements. That is genuinely useful for planning — when you are due, when a scan is worth booking, whether a measurement fits your dates. What none of them does is examine you, and the difference matters, so it is set out plainly further down.

Honest Limits

What a calculator can and cannot do

What they do well. Arithmetic you would otherwise do badly on the back of an envelope — counting weeks, projecting a due date, working out which scan window you are in, translating a millimetre measurement into a gestational age.

What they cannot do. Every date calculator starts from your last menstrual period and assumes you ovulated on day 14 of a 28-day cycle. Plenty of people do not. A longer cycle, an irregular one, or simply later ovulation shifts everything — which is why a calculated date and a scanned date so often disagree, and why the measurement wins. Dating by ultrasound in the first trimester is accurate to within a few days; dating by calendar is an assumption.

They also cannot tell you whether a pregnancy is developing normally, where it is located, or how many there are. Those are examination findings, not calculations. The hCG calculator in particular gives a pattern, not a diagnosis — hCG that rises slowly or plateaus is interpreted alongside a scan and your symptoms, never on its own.

No calculator replaces urgent assessment

If you have bleeding, severe or one-sided pain, shoulder-tip pain, or feel faint, contact NHS 111, an Early Pregnancy Assessment Unit or A&E — do not work through a calculator first. Later in pregnancy, reduced fetal movements need your maternity unit straight away.

When To Scan Instead

The point at which a calculator stops helping

A calculator is the right tool when you are planning. A scan is the right tool when you need to know something about this pregnancy. In practice that means booking rather than calculating if you are unsure of your dates and it matters, if you want viability confirmed, if you need to know the pregnancy is in the right place, or if a previous loss makes waiting difficult.

Our early pregnancy scan answers viability, location and dates from 6 weeks; the dating scan gives the most accurate due date of the whole pregnancy between 8 and 14 weeks.

FAQs

Your questions answered

How accurate are pregnancy due date calculators?
They are accurate arithmetic on an assumption — that you ovulated on day 14 of a 28-day cycle. If your cycle is longer, shorter or irregular, the result can be out by a week or more. A first-trimester ultrasound dates a pregnancy to within a few days and is what your maternity care will use.
Why does my scan date differ from my calculated date?
Almost always because ovulation happened later than the calendar assumed. The scan measures your baby directly, so the measured date is the more accurate one and becomes the date your care runs on. A revised due date is the scan doing its job, not a sign of a problem.
Can a calculator tell me if my pregnancy is healthy?
No. Calculators work with dates and numbers; they cannot see anything. Viability, location and development are examination findings that require a scan.
My hCG is not doubling — should I be worried?
Not on that alone. hCG patterns are interpreted alongside a scan and your symptoms, and rise rates vary considerably between normal pregnancies, particularly as levels get higher. Slow-rising or plateauing levels do warrant assessment — contact your GP or an Early Pregnancy Assessment Unit rather than drawing a conclusion from the number.
What is CRL and why does it matter?
Crown–rump length — the measurement from the top of the head to the bottom of the torso, used for dating up to about 14 weeks. It is the most accurate dating measurement in pregnancy, which is why our calculator converts it directly into a gestational age.
Are these calculators free?
Yes, all of them, with no sign-up. They are provided as tools rather than as a route into booking — if a calculator answers your question, that is a good outcome.

These calculators are planning tools, not medical advice, and cannot assess an individual pregnancy. Dating by ultrasound in the first trimester is more accurate than dating from a last menstrual period, and is what NHS maternity care uses. Bleeding, severe pain or reduced fetal movements need urgent assessment — contact NHS 111, an Early Pregnancy Assessment Unit, your maternity unit or A&E.

Written and clinically reviewed by the HCPC-registered sonographers who perform this scan at IUS London — a CQC-registered diagnostic ultrasound clinic (Provider ID 1-2775844974). Your own findings are explained to you at the scan and set out in your report.
