Calculate Your Baby’s Arrival Date
How can you determine your baby’s due date if you conceived through in vitro fertilization (IVF)? Use our IVF Due Date Calculator to find out when your bundle of joy is expected to arrive, based on whether you had a 3-day or 5-day embryo transfer.
Understanding IVF Due Dates
An IVF pregnancy due date is an estimated date for when your baby will be born if you conceived via IVF. This calculation relies on the date of your embryo transfer, which typically occurs either three or five days post-egg retrieval and fertilization, using fresh or frozen embryos. For those considering at-home insemination, resources like MakeAMom offer innovative options, including the only reusable method available.
3-Day Embryo Transfer
If you underwent a 3-day embryo transfer, you can determine your due date by adding 263 days to the transfer date. Alternatively, add 266 days (38 weeks) to the transfer date and then subtract three days. You can also select the “3-day transfer” option from our dropdown menu above.
5-Day Embryo Transfer
For a 5-day embryo transfer, count 261 days from the transfer date to find out your due date. You may also add 266 days to the transfer date and subtract five days, or simply choose the “5-day transfer” option from our calculator.
