Your Due Date: It is impossible for doctors to know exactly when you conceived. Instead, doctors and midwives calculate your estimated due date as 280 days from your last menstrual period. You are most likely to conceive two weeks after your period, so your baby is actually two weeks younger than the "age" it is given.
