Just like the full month celebration marks babys first full month, the 100-day celebration marks a newborns first full 100 days. This practice is common in other Asian countries like Korea and Japan, and it dates back to ancient times when life was harder, so it was a good omen if an infant survived past 100 days.

Beside above, what is a 100 day celebration? The 100 first days is a traditional celebration that marks the end of the first 3 months of life for a new baby — in other words, its the end of the fourth trimester!

Also, how do you count how old your baby is?

Count babys age in weeks up until week four (which is one-month-old), or until week six to eight for immunisations and health checks. Then, count babys age in months going from the date they were born. So if your bub was born on February 4, they will be three-months-old on May 4.

Do Chinese celebrate 100 days?

The 100 Day or 1 Month Birthday Celebration In Taoist or Buddhist families, the morning of a babys 30th day after birth, sacrifices are presented to gods so that they will protect the child in its later life. The 100 day traditional celebration has also caught on across Chinese cultures in modern times.
