do you count by weeks(four weeks=month)? or by complete months (may 4th to june4th=month)? for example - my son is 15 weeks old - almost 4 months by the first method and 3 months on august 4th by the second method. how do you count it at this age?

I actually counted both ways. When people would ask how old my daughter was I would say 8 weeks (even though we say 8 weeks is 2 months) she still wasn't technically 2 months old. After she was around three months I just counted in months at that point. Does that make sense?? After that I just said three and a half months, four and a half months and so on.

I counted by both. Each month date (4th to 4th) I would say ___ months old. But if another week goes by, it would be 5 weeks or 8 weeks. Then by about 2 1/2 months (10 weeks) I stopped counting weeks and did months only.

The only month that is actually four weeks long is February. All the rest 2 or 3 days over 4 weeks. So the 4 weeks=one month method is inaccurate.

As a mother of three, I'll tell you - it's up to you. There are developmental stages babies go through each week that are distinctly different until they are 4 months old. If you want to count weeks, go ahead! The same goes for when they are over 1 year old. There are stages the babies go through until about 18 months.
And he is almost 4 months either way.

I prefer using"weeks" during pregnancy until say the first 3 months, then I use "months" till the baby's 36 months old. Then I use year beyond that.
