Before they arrive
Week 8. Week 20. Week 32. The story counts up in gestational weeks toward the day you finally meet them.
Baby age tracker
The baby age tracker that answers “how old is she now?” for good.
How many weeks is she today? Our Pear Tree answers it once and keeps answering it forever. Every photo, video, and note labels itself with your child’s exact age at that moment, from gestational weeks before birth to years down the road.
The question every new parent asks
“How old is she now?” answered permanently.
In the newborn haze you count in weeks. A little later you switch to months. Before long you are just saying two and a half. Our Pear Tree does that counting for you, and it does it for every memory, not only today.
Open a photo from any point in your child’s life and it tells you exactly how old they were when it was taken, ten weeks old, nine months, two years and three months, all worked out from their birth date so there is never any math. Because we control the moment a memory is captured, the age is computed once and stays consistent across the whole family’s view.
Why age beats a timestamp
A date tells you when. An age tells you who they were.
A photo stamped March 14 tells you a calendar day. A photo labeled six weeks old tells you something that actually means something: the size of her, the newborn squint, the week you finally got a real smile. Years from now, a timestamp is just a number. The age is the memory. That is why every moment on Our Pear Tree wears its age, not only its date, so the archive still makes sense to you, and to your kids, long after the calendar has blurred.
And the age is one consistent number everywhere. It reads the same in the app, in the private link you share with family, and in the weekly digest that lands in their inbox. No one has to work out how old the baby was in a given photo, because the memory already knows. Every first you check off in the milestone tracker wears that same exact age.
Before day one
The story starts at “Week 8,” not “day zero.”
Your child’s story does not begin at birth, so neither does the timeline. During pregnancy, memories are anchored on your expected due date and labeled by gestational week, so the first entry can read Week 8: heartbeat instead of a blank calendar. The bump photos, the first ultrasound, the name you settled on at 2am, they all take their place in weeks, and when your baby arrives the counting simply rolls over into their age. Start the story early with the pregnancy photo journal.
Weeks, then months, then years
The label grows up alongside them.
As your child grows, Our Pear Tree shifts from weeks to months to years the way you naturally would, so the label always matches how you would say it out loud.
The newborn weeks
Ten days old. Six weeks old. When every single week looks completely different from the last.
The baby months
Four months. Nine months. Once weeks turn into a mouthful and months tell the story better.
The growing years
One year, three months. Two years old. Told the way you would actually say it out loud.
Every child in your family gets their own age on the same timeline, so a single afternoon can read three years old for your firstborn and five weeks old for the baby, with no confusion about who is who. It works on the web and on iPhone, with Android on the way, and it starts free. If you are bringing older photos over, we keep each one’s original date, so the ages come out right all the way back to the beginning.
Questions
What parents ask about baby age.
How is my baby's age calculated?
From their birth date. You enter the day your child was born once, and from then on every memory works out the exact age on its own, whether that is measured in days, weeks, months, or years. Before birth, ages are counted as gestational weeks from your expected due date. You never do the arithmetic, and it stays right even years later.
Do you show age in weeks or in months?
Both, at the times you would naturally use each. In the early days a memory reads in weeks, because that is how newborn time is measured. As your child grows it moves to months, and then to years and months, the way you would answer if a stranger asked at the grocery store. You do not choose or switch anything, the label just keeps up as they grow.
Does it track age during pregnancy?
Yes. Before your baby is born, the timeline counts in gestational weeks anchored on your expected due date, so your first entries can read Week 12 rather than a bare calendar date. When your baby arrives, the counting rolls straight over into their age.
What about a premature baby, or corrected age?
We label every memory with your baby's age counted from their birth date, the day they arrived, and during pregnancy from your expected due date. Our Pear Tree is a memory keeper, not a medical tool, so it does not calculate a corrected or adjusted age. If corrected age matters to your family, your pediatrician is the right person to guide you, and you can always add your own note to any memory.
Does it work with more than one child?
Yes. Each child has their own age on the shared timeline, so the same photo can be labeled four years old for one and two months old for another. Everyone in the family sees the same consistent ages, with no confusion about who is who.
How much does it cost?
The age labels, the timeline, milestones, and growth tracking are all free, along with 15 GB of photos, about 30,000, and unlimited free viewers. HD video is the Family plan at $6.99 a month or $69 a year. No ads, and no credit card to start. See the full pricing.
