Enter your baby’s date of birth to see their age in months, weeks and days. It works for newborns, infants, toddlers and older children, and includes an optional corrected age for babies born early.
Baby Age in Months, Weeks and Days
Doctors, nurses and parents usually describe a young baby’s age in weeks, a growing baby’s age in months, and switch to years around the second birthday. This baby age calculator shows months, weeks and days together, so you can answer a form, follow a checkup or vaccination schedule given by your doctor, fill in a daycare application or keep a milestone diary without counting on a calendar.
Methodology
The calculator counts completed calendar months from the date of birth, then the remaining days. Weeks come from the total number of days divided by seven, rounded down, with the leftover days shown separately.
Age = completed months + remaining days
Weeks = total days ÷ 7
Months have different lengths, so a month-based age and a week-based age can look slightly different. About 4 months is roughly 17 weeks, not exactly 16 or 18.
Worked example
Date of birth: 5 January 2026
Calculate on: 20 May 2026
5 Jan → 5 May = 4 completed months
5 May → 20 May = 15 days
Total = 135 days = 19 weeks and 2 days
Baby’s age = 4 months and 15 days (19 weeks, 2 days).
Corrected age for premature babies
A baby born early may be given a corrected (or adjusted) age, which counts from the due date instead of the birth date. Add the due date in the optional field to see the actual age and the corrected age together. For example, a baby born on 15 February 2026 with a due date of 1 April 2026 is 5 months and 17 days old by birth date on 1 August 2026, and 4 months and 0 days old by corrected age. How corrected age is used is decided by your doctor or health visitor, so treat this as a calendar calculation, not medical advice.
