How is Gestational Week Calculated?
The calculation uses Naegele's Rule, which is the clinical standard worldwide: 1. Gestational Duration: A full-term pregnancy is estimated at 280 days (40 weeks) from the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP). 2. Conception Date: In a regular 28-day cycle, conception typically happens 14 days after LMP. 3. Trimesters: - 1st Trimester: Weeks 1 - 12 - 2nd Trimester: Weeks 13 - 26 - 3rd Trimester: Weeks 27 - 40+.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Standard due date calculations assume a regular 28-day cycle. If your cycle is longer (e.g., 32 days), your ovulation happened later, and your actual due date will be adjusted forward by a few days.

Early first-trimester ultrasounds measure crown-rump length, which is the most reliable way to date a pregnancy. If there is a discrepancy of more than 7 days, your obstetrician will likely adjust your official due date based on the scan.
