one or two?From: MS GAIL M HART (YTDP43A@prodigy.com)Tue Dec 29 22:00:31 1998
re LSR>>>Yes, when you have completed your first year of life, you have entered your 2nd year of life and your age is 2 years, not 1 year.<< Now I'm hopelessly confused (there was a glimmer of hope before).... Or are you teasing us? Why would you say that you (or your baby) is now "2" after he has his 'first" birthday? Is there a cultural difference about this? Here, we celebrate a child's first birthday on day 365 -- when he has completed his first year of life. He gets "one" candle on the cake and is called a one year old baby. He is entering his second year of life, but will not be considered "two" untill he has COMPLETED that second year (day 730); then he get's two candles and is called a two year old. Isn't this so? (Though I'm reminded that many Asian countries count by the coming year: one year at birth, two years at the first aniversery of the birth etc). ____ GAIL HART, midwife, Oregon, USA

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
