Why Weigh a Newborn?
It's a well-known fact that the first weigh-in of a baby will be dearly remembered, lovingly shared and almost always commented on. People rarely forget their baby's birth weight; which is why hospitals are expected to have accurate baby scales.
Weighing newborns is also important to check on their health – over time it shows you the rate at which they gain weight. Establishing a growth chart is one of the few objective ways to assess a baby's health as they can't express symptoms of illness in any other way than crying.
To guard against babies losing too much weight in the first fortnight, they should be weighed with accurate scales used by Community Midwives, Health Visitors and GPs.
Seca Baby Scales, along with the Marsden options listed above, simplify the weighing of infants and go a long way to ensuring they're properly looked after in those first few months.
