We offer the use of Medela BabyWeigh scales free-of-charge at the Maternal Connections Lactation Center in our Mountain View and Los Gatos hospitals. These scales help you calculate your baby's breastmilk intake and continued growth.

By weighing your baby before and after nursing, the BabyWeigh scale calculates the baby's intake for you within two grams (0.1 oz). The Maternal Connections staff will assist you should you have any questions about how to use the scales. Seeing your results may offer that extra reassurance that you and your baby are on the right track.

The Medela Baby Weigh scales are located in the Maternal Connections Mother Baby community room in Mountain View, and in the Women's Hospital in Los Gatos. You do not need an appointment to use these scales. You may also rent a scale for home use; for more information, please call the Maternal Connections Lactation Center in Mountain View at 650-988-8287, or in Los Gatos at 408-866-3905.
