A baby weigh scale

In light of the Corona virus I would recommend for all new parents to buy yourself a weigh scale off of Amazon for 40-50 dollars. Assessing how much your baby gets at each breastfeeding session can be a difficult thing. This 40-50 dollar weigh scale will not tell you that information but you can track your baby’s weight gain regularly. This way you can weigh your baby just in a diaper every other morning and ensure that they are gaining weight. The first three months of their life they should be gaining half an ounce to one ounce per day. The second three months the gain is a little less than one half of a pound per week. Your baby’s weight should double their birth weight at six months and triple their birth weight at one year. One thing you can be sure of is the scale does not lie!!
