Calculating Age?

This seems like a silly question, but I hadn't thought of it 'til now. My baby was born May 16. Is she one month old on June 16 or on June 13, exactly four weeks after I had her? During pregnancy, I always just calculated the months as every 4 weeks to keep it simple. TIA :)

Re: Calculating Age?

  • I went from date to date because technically a month is longer than 4 wks. So if you just went by 4 wk increments, then you would hit 12 "months" before LO's 1st b-day...if that makes sense. DD was born on May 2nd so I said she was 1 month on June 2nd.

    Like pp said you go from date to date, and not a silly question, I asked my dr this!

  • Date to date like pp said. They are 4 weeks at 4 weeks and a month the month after they were born.
