frankly I'm flabbergasted about discussing scales for $700 dollars and accuracy to  2 grams.  I wonder how they are being used. I can see using a scale like that in the NICU, but not for everyday in home use.   I 've had a SECA for about 5 years now.  Easy to carry-nice handle-cost $250 and weighs in grams or oz to the 3rd decimal point.    I can't remember the brand name of the one before that, sorry :-)  I've been doing this for many years, took the exam in 1985.  I've never done a pre and post weight :-(  You can tell in  other ways if baby got a belly full and I look for those.  I think pre and post weights are so scary for mom, who already doubts her supply.  I'm not sure what I'm trying to say here, just pondering....Pat in SNJ
