How to Predict the Date of Birth After Conception

After becoming pregnant one of the first questions friends and family ask is when the baby is due. While your OB/GYN will give you an estimated due date at your first visit, this date could change during the pregnancy. Use your baby's due date to start planning for the nursery and booking your maternity leave from work. You can also use the due date as a guideline for monitoring your child's growth in the womb.
