Your pediatrician will measure the following characteristics of your baby:
Weight: After calibrating the scale the doctor or nurse will place your entirely naked baby on a baby scale. There are electronic and traditional beam-type versions of the baby scale, but most will typically have the same type of baby holding stainless steel cradle. After your child is able to stand on her own, your pediatrician will most likely use a standard upright scale.
Length: Like weighing, until your baby is able to stand up on his own, your doctor will perform the height/length measurements with your baby lying down. Your doctor may use a tape measure, much like you use at home, or may utilize a special baby-measuring tool, which consists of a headboard and movable footboard to achieve the most accurate results possible.
