Unfortunately, going back and trying to count it again, I could only come up with 7 in the anime and movies, plus 2 in the manga. That doesn't really allow us to plot it out by month, since, unless I can find the other 3 I thought I counted last month, that means there could be months where he transforms and it just isn't shown. Though we may be able to use full moons to help us, as I can remember them showing other moon phases on at least a handful of other occasions. There's an especially big gap between the fight at Naraku's castle in S3 that lasts roughly 3 seasons where he doesn't transform until a filler episode in S6/7. (aside from the incidental purification he sustained from Mt. Hakurei's barrier during his fight with Renkotsu).
