# | # According to R. Ovadiah Yosef, a child who became [[Bar Mitzvah]]ed during Sefirah should continue counting after his Bar Mitvah without a bracha.<ref> Sh"t Yabia Omer 3:27-28</ref> However, most Ashkenazi poskim say that he may continue counting even with a bracha.<ref>Shaarei Teshuvah O.C. 489:20, Aruch HaShulchan O.C. 489:15, Sheilot U'teshuvot Kesav Sofer 99, Sheilot U'teshuvot Maharam Shick 260, and Sheilot U'Teshuvot Mishnah Halachos 11:398. Rabbi Yosef Dov Soloveitchik quoted in Eretz Hatzvi 3:6-7 says that according to the Behag quoted in Tosafot 66a "zecher" the bar-mitzva boy should be allowed to continue with a beracha because the mitzva is dependent on the consecutiveness of the 49 nights, which he fulfills even before becoming of age. </ref> | ||
# A convert who converted during Sefirah should not count with a bracha from the time of his conversion.<ref>Shaarei Teshuvah O.C. 489:20, Aruch HaShulchan O.C. 489:15</ref> | |||

# Lechatchila, one should know the number of the day when you make the bracha. Bedieved, if one said the bracha with intent to hear the number of the day from his friend and paused to hear his friend after his bracha, he’s Yotsei. <ref> S”A 489:5 writes that if one said the bracha with in mind that one will say the Hayom that his friend says, he fulfills his obligation. Yet, Taz 489:8 writes that implied from S”A is that Lechatchila one should say the bracha only when you know the number of the day. Mishna Brurah 489:29 adds that Lechatchila it’s forbidden to pause for more than [[Toch Kedi Dibbur]]. </ref> | # Lechatchila, one should know the number of the day when you make the bracha.
