Pregnancy Calculator Disclaimer
- Due Date Calculations: Our pregnancy calculator provides estimated due dates based on standard medical formulas. Only about 5% of babies are born on their exact due date. Actual delivery dates can vary by several weeks.

- High-Risk Pregnancies: If you have a high-risk pregnancy or any complications, consult your healthcare provider for personalized monitoring and care.
Baby Growth Calculator Disclaimer
- WHO Growth Standards: Our calculator uses WHO Child Growth Standards, which represent optimal growth patterns. Individual children may have different growth patterns that are still completely normal.
- Percentile Interpretation: Growth percentiles indicate how your child compares to other children of the same age. Being in a lower or higher percentile doesn't necessarily indicate a health problem.
- Growth Concerns: If you have concerns about your child's growth, consult your pediatrician who can evaluate growth patterns in the context of your child's overall health.
Vaccination Schedule Disclaimer
- Standard Schedules: Our vaccination calculator provides general schedules based on CDC and WHO recommendations. Your pediatrician may recommend a different schedule based on your child's specific needs.

- Vaccine Safety: All vaccines recommended by our tool have been extensively tested for safety and efficacy. Discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider.
Ovulation Calculator Disclaimer
