Dumb Q : How do you count how many "weeks" DC is??

How do you figure out how old DC is? Obviously they turn a year old on their birthday. Since that's the case, do you go based on the date of birth to figure out how many weeks they are? For example - Athan was born March 10. Today is July 10. Is he 16 weeks today?

Or do you count based on the DAY he was born? March 10 was a Monday. That would make him 17 weeks and 3 days. Chat Icon

I am sure this is a DUH question... but I am really kind of confused. Chat Icon

Honestly I only did weeks until they were about 3 months old or 12 weeks..after that I did months...

Then usually I do months until about 18 months then I usually will say "he'll/she'll be 2 in August" etc...

Ryan's birthday is March 20 - I say he is 16wks today (but pretty much at this point say "almost 4 months or 3 1/2 months")

BTW this post is TOTALLY your fault!!! Chat Icon You threw me off when you said Ryan is 16 weeks today since I thought Athan was 16 weeks today and he was born 10 days earlier than Ryan. Maybe no one will ask me how old Athan is till he turns ONE!! Chat Icon

I would be totally thrown off if you referred to Athan as 16wks today - your kid is older Chat Icon

I do both. DD was born December 4, soooo last Friday (July 4) she was 7 months. December 4 was a Tuesday, so this past Tuesday she was 31 weeks.
