Babies age

My baby was born 21st October so he’s 21 weeks 2 days I get so confused with working out the age do you do it by the date of each month so 21st of each month or by weeks, as from weeks he is already 5 months but by date he is 5 months this Friday? Does anyone else get confused by this what is the best way to work it out or the correct way 🤣🤣

I always go off the month because when you have a birthday it's always on the same date but not day of the week. So 12 months exactly they'll be 1 xx

Go by the date each month, not weeks

Months. so he is 5 months old on 21st march ☺️ my LB is the 20th , can’t believe 5 months is already here 🥺

I go by months now (once past 16 weeks) so they’re 5 months next week they’ll just be 5 and a bit months until almost 6 months. I’m lucky if I know what day we’re on half the time let alone how May weeks they are 😂

Once mine hit 16 weeks I started counting in months based on the date. I don’t even know how many weeks she is now

My little girl was also born on October 21st - I’ve been counting weeks unless it’s on the 21st of a month - then it is a new month. X

Go by weeks until like 12 weeks then months. And it changes on the date they were born so the 21st. And I stop going by months once they turn 2

There is not always 4 weeks in a month so if you always went off of weeks they would turn 1 before they turn 1

Thanks every yeah it makes sense to go of the date when you think about them turning one don’t know why I hadn’t thought of that 🤣🫶🏽 x

Birthday twin !! We go by the 21st of each month !

My baby was born on the 14th of October, so on the 14th of this month, I started saying she’s 5 months. I honestly think I stopped counting the weeks after she was like 8 weeks haha

The date each month. My sister in law did it by weeks and baby was 13 months at a year old 🤣🤣
