>Just got the One Step Ahead Catalog.  They have this lovely scale that
converts from a baby scale to a regular child's scale.  Weighs in 2 oz.
increments.  Catalog description states "a must have for breastfeeding
mothers."  ARRGHHHH! is all I can say.<

Mildly surprised at this reaction at the advert in this catalogue.  When the
Journal of Human Lactation advertises a scale for weighing babies, why shouldn't
others follow suit?   I nearly DIED when I first saw *that* advert, and it has
seriously coloured my perception of the journal.
