At what point do you stop using weeks to describe your LOs age? I think stop at 12 weeks and start saying 3 months etc. what do y'all think?

Question

My LO is 13 weeks today but I'll just say 3 months old. I've seen some say "my baby is 40 weeks old."

Yes but your baby is 9.5 months old.

🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

I stopped when I cpukd no longer remember how many weeks. He's 5 months today.

Answer

When he hit a month. Now that he's a year, we go by years. You could be funny and go by hours. That'll mess people up!

Answer

I stopped around 2 months. After 6 weeks I feel like I didn't really use weeks anymore. But I'm also one of those people that gets irrationally angry when moms at the store are like "oh mine is 36 months old" 😐

Answer

I start pretty immediately.  As soon as I can use months I use it. No one wants to hear about your 32 week old baby. .. just use the damn months !

Answer

I stopped around 16 weeks. But after 3 months it was more just to watch people add up how many months that was lol.

Answer

It depends on what someone wants to know. If you're talking milestones, weeks are more accurate than months.

Answer

I started at 3 months too but some people would be like"how many weeks is that" like idk lol I'm already ready to stop counting months because he's about to be a year and then people go on with months forever too lol

Answer

I stopped at 3 months. I just pay attention to the weeks for the Wonder Weeks.

Answer

I stopped after 7 weeks and used months. After they turn 1 I stop using months unless absolutely necessary to use months.... it drives me crazy to hear someone say "my lo is 36 months!" Ummm just say 3!

Answer
