Pregnancy Due Date Calculator

Calculate your estimated due date (EDD) from last menstrual period (LMP). Trimesters and key milestones.

How EDD is calculated

Your estimated due date (EDD) is your last menstrual period (LMP) plus 280 days (40 weeks). This is Naegele's rule. If your cycle is longer or shorter than the typical 28 days, the calculator adjusts: a 30-day cycle adds 2 days; a 26-day cycle subtracts 2.

Trimesters & milestones

  • 1st trimester — weeks 1–12. First antenatal visit, NHIF maternity activation.
  • 2nd trimester — weeks 13–26. Anomaly scan around week 20.
  • 3rd trimester — weeks 27–40. Delivery prep, hospital choice, leave planning.

Tanzania practicalities

  • Antenatal care is free at most public clinics; NHIF covers private/mission hospitals.
  • NSSF maternity benefit pays 100% of salary for 84 days every 3 years if you have 36 contribution months.
  • Maternity leave — 84 calendar days, paid by NSSF (employer tops up if NSSF rate is below salary).
  • Public hospitals like Muhimbili, KCMC, Bugando, MOI — high-volume, low cost; private like Aga Khan, Regency, Premier Care — higher cost, faster service.

See the Leave Days Calculator for maternity-leave timing and the NHIF Calculator for cover.
