40 Weeks and Pregnancy Due Dates
Forty weeks (280 days) is best known as the standard length of a pregnancy used to estimate a due date. That convention counts from the first day of the last menstrual period, so "40 weeks from today" only matches a due date if today is that day — a pregnancy calculator or your healthcare provider gives the proper estimate.
Outside pregnancy, 40 weeks is roughly nine months: a common lead time for large conferences, weddings and product launches, and close to the length of a US school year.
