Hi Stacey

So my unpopular opinion is that parents should only refer to their baby’s age in months for the first year, not in weeks. 

I don’t know what you mean when you say your baby is 17 weeks old. Please speak line and adult. 

After the first year only refer to your baby’s age in years. Again i am tired fo doing the math of what 42 months is.
