How To Check The Age?
My son was born july 19,2012. I was wondering would he be 3 months old on 10/19/2012 or 12 weeks. I thought i would go by the 19th of every month as him turning a different age but then people are telling me i go by weeks like 3 months is 12 weeks so which one do i go by.

Hi,
Your query is logically correct. Though we take 4 weeks in a month , the count is less by 2 days each month. Actually one month is 30 days on an average. & so age is counted in terms of months.
Obviously your son born on 19-07-2012 will be 3 months on 19-10-2012.( the error being just 3 days it is more acceptable.)
Thanks.
