user417751之前回答的重做。也许不是那么python的方式，但它照顾到不同的月份长度和闰年。在本例中，2012年1月31日+ 1个月= 2012年2月29日。

import datetime
import calendar

def add_mths(d, x):
    newday = d.day
    newmonth = (((d.month - 1) + x) % 12) + 1
    newyear  = d.year + (((d.month - 1) + x) // 12)
    if newday > calendar.mdays[newmonth]:
        newday = calendar.mdays[newmonth]
        if newyear % 4 == 0 and newmonth == 2:
            newday += 1
    return datetime.date(newyear, newmonth, newday)

我使用这个函数来更改年和月，但保留日:

def replace_month_year(date1, year2, month2):
    try:
        date2 = date1.replace(month = month2, year = year2)
    except:
        date2 = datetime.date(year2, month2 + 1, 1) - datetime.timedelta(days=1)
    return date2

你应该这样写:

new_year = my_date.year + (my_date.month + 6) / 12
new_month = (my_date.month + 6) % 12
new_date = replace_month_year(my_date, new_year, new_month)

按月开始计算:

from datetime import timedelta
from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta

end_date = start_date + relativedelta(months=delta_period) + timedelta(days=-delta_period)

PyQt4的QDate类有一个addmonths函数。

>>>from PyQt4.QtCore import QDate  
>>>dt = QDate(2009,12,31)  
>>>required = dt.addMonths(6) 

>>>required
PyQt4.QtCore.QDate(2010, 6, 30)

>>>required.toPyDate()
datetime.date(2010, 6, 30)

我是这样解决这个问题的:

import calendar
from datetime import datetime
moths2add = 6
now = datetime.now()
current_year = now.year
current_month = now.month
#count days in months you want to add using calendar module
days = sum(
  [calendar.monthrange(current_year, elem)[1] for elem in range(current_month, current_month + moths)]
    )
print now + days

当我需要添加几个月或几年的时间，并且不想导入更多的库时，我就会这样做。

只需创建一个datetime.date()对象，调用add_month(date)来添加一个月，调用add_year(date)来添加一个年。
