When a woman finds out she's pregnant, the doctor calculates her pregnancy starting from the first day of her last menstrual cycle, meaning she would already be one month pregnant even though she had just conceived.
A woman carries a baby for 9 months, or technically 8 months if you don't count back to her last menstrual cycle.
When a woman gives birth, that day signifies the baby's born day or birth day, and a count down begins until the baby's first born day anniversary the following year.

If the baby has been living all this time in our bellies, why wouldn't we count the child's birthday from a woman's last menstrual cycle?
