Due date : The most accurate way to determine the due date is to calculate 38 weeks from the day of conception. In a woman with regular cycles of 28 days that would be 40 weeks from the first day of last period. Early ultrasound is also accurate, especially to confirm. Later changes to the due date are not more accurate and not advised.
