Formula Used

The calculation is based on the difference between the current date and the baby's birth date. The formula used is:

Months = (Current Year - Birth Year) × 12 + (Current Month - Birth Month)
If Current Day < Birth Day, subtract 1 from Months

This formula accounts for the varying number of days in each month and provides an accurate month count.

Worked Examples

Example 1: Baby born on January 15, 2023

If today is May 10, 2023:

Months = (2023 - 2023) × 12 + (5 - 1) = 0 + 4 = 4 months

Since 10 > 15, we don't subtract 1. The baby is 4 months old.

Example 2: Baby born on March 20, 2023

If today is March 15, 2024:

Months = (2024 - 2023) × 12 + (3 - 3) = 12 + 0 = 12 months
Since 15 < 20, subtract 1: 12 - 1 = 11 months

The baby is 11 months old.
