As a rule it is taken as 280 days. It is calculated from the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP), so it includes almost 14 days of pre consumption. As a rule of thumb, the probable date of delivery can be calculated by adding 9 months and 7 days to LMP. But left un-intervened, only 15% of women deliver on that date.
