He's 4 months on the 30th. I get the confusion. Same way they say 40 weeks of pregnancy is 9 months when it's closer to 9 and a half/10 months 😅

Thank you I’ve been so confused for weeks 😂

Well it’s weird because calpol is from 2 months and can have it from their 8 week jabs, or 12 weeks is 3 months but then suddenly you go past 12 weeks and then have to do it in months lol

You count the month from the date they were born. My boy is going to be almost 22 weeks by the time he's 5 months as there aren't always 4 weeks in a month 🙃

Yeah I get. My baby is 16 weeks but won’t be 4 months until 29th 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

I’m counting in months so my girl was born on 26th and that’s the date each month I take her month photos on I’ve actually forget her age in weeks had to write that on the calendar each Friday 😂

I’ve always gone on the day they were born. (My lb was 3rd so I go by the 3rd of each month) because 1 year is the 3rd of each month and there’s different amount of weeks in a month

I do full months, my girl was born 1st august so shell be 4 months on 1st December x

I did the exact same thing with my son I was posting on fb every 4 weeks saying ‘1 month today’ ‘2 months today’ n I was actually wrong, blame it on the baby brain 🤣

My son was born on the same day, I count weeks every Tuesday then months every 30th so hes still technically 3 months until 30th November where he’ll be 4 months ☺️ that’s how I work it out. Not sure if it’s right or not though 😆 xx

A baby's age is typically counted in weeks until they are six months old, and then in months until they are two years old. This is the method used by healthcare professionals and is also how people commonly discuss a child's age. It helps ensure consistency and accuracy when writing about a baby's development, vaccinations, and milestones.
