The 6 Weeks 3 Days Pregnant Due Date Calculator estimates the expected delivery date (EDD) based on the current date when a woman is 6 weeks and 3 days pregnant. This calculation follows standard pregnancy dating methods.

2. How Does The Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

\[ EDD = CD + ((40 - 6) \times 7 - 3) \]

\( 6 \) — Current weeks pregnant
