You live for 12 months before you are 1 yr old, so until then you are in your 1st year of life. After your 1st birthday you are in your second year of life.

Sorry amber but he's right. From the day you're born until your first birthday is your first year, it's like being a year in hand on the actual age that you are. smile

Well, from birth to your 1st birthday is considered your first year, so the year after your 1st birthday must be the second and so on. I think!! smile

Sooty. Your DH is right. You’re in your 70th year until your birthday, then it’ll be your 71st...

I’m 70 in December 2020.
My husband ( quite confidently) says I’m in my 70th year now and that this is the norm. ?
I say I’m not as I’m in my 69th .
I agree I will be in my 70th year this December - God willing . I’m not touchy about age btw .
He’s 74 now and will be 75 in November and thinks he’s in his 75 th year presumably . I’ve had to drop the subject as it’s so petty . Any guidance O wise sybils of Gransnet ? He won’t argue with you .
