Default Updating gestational age based on today's date

Hi,
I work in a hospital providing support for families of premature infants. I use an excel spreadsheet to track the patients that I work with. I'm hoping someone can assist me in creating a formula for my spreadsheet to display an updated baby's age based on today's date.
For instance, I would enter a baby's birthday in "a1", the baby's gestational age at birth in "a2" (ex: 29 weeks 2 days or 29 2/7), and then have a formula in "a3" that tells me how old they are today in weeks.
Is this possible?
Example: A baby is born on 8/20/2014 at 30 weeks 2 days. I need a formula to show me that on today's date (8/26/2014) the baby is now 31 weeks 1 day old. I'd like it to display as 31 weeks 1 day or 31 1/7.

Thanks so much!
