Create a new column with your month column as count and month as duration. Then expand into new rows.
tex628 thank you so much for the response so would it look like this
List.Dates([DateInvoiced],[Months], [Months] )
thank you

Nevermind that, apparently its not that simple.
It appear that list.dates cant use month as increment which leaves us with a more complicated solution.
Use List.Numbers to create a record for each month. So you would do something along the lines of:List.Numbers( 0 , [Month] )
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerquery-m/list-numbers
When the list is expanded you should end up with 1 record representing each month. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 etc.
Now you want to create a new column using:Date.AddMonths( [DateInvoiced] , [New column that you just made] )

This should give you the desired result! Sorry for the missdirect in the beginning, hope it works out.
