Is your ticker wrong?

[floppit]

Or is it just me?

I've re done the bloody thing twice, I've recounted the weeks about half a dozen times now but I still can't get them to come up with the same age!

Freya was born Apr 5th, which was a saturday and by my count she's now 11 weeks and 3 days old - but as you can see that's not what my ticker says!

So, is it me? Or are these tickers POO!

Hey floppit,

The ticker is correct, its just counting the time in months rather than weeks. So although your daughter is 11+3 old in weeks she's also 2m, 2 w and 5 days old if you count it in months - do you see what I mean?

You can get weekly tickers if you'd prefer, you just have to choose the counting by weeks option when setting it up. However as your baby gets older, you'll find it easier to count in weeks (I would always tell people my DD is 11 months old rather than 47 weeks now!) so it may be easier to keep the same ticker in the long run.

I hope this helps

A month is counted as 4 weeks and 3 days usually.

Oh... yep, that would make sense.

I thought I'd got passed every week mattering - till I felt robbed by a bloody computer ticker!

I've been thinking my ticker has been wrong all week too.

I have even counted the days on the calendar and thought it was wrong
