Self Baby Baby Weigh Station

The London Health Center SELF Baby Weigh Station is only for patients of our clinic by appointment only, and is located in the Docere/Yoga Room bathroom. We will not schedule baby weights during class times.

These instructions are posted on the wall of the bathroom:

• Please wash your hands BEFORE touching anything

• Place Blue Pad on changing table, undress baby completely for naked weight. IF you have a “mini-doctor” appointment scheduled, the doctor will stop in for a brief exam.

• Place White Paper on Scale. Turn on Scale. Make sure Scale Tray is not touching anything. After zeros appear, place the undressed baby on Scale.  When the baby has stopped moving, the numbers will stabilize, then record the weight. IF you have an older child/toddler who you think will be unsafe at the height of the scale on the changing table, you may move the scale to the floor to weigh your child. The scale has a 44 pound capacity.  If your child weighs more than 40 pounds, consider using the adult scale also located in the bathroom.

• We recommend you bring your own diapers & wipes.

Report weight as you have been directed to, you may email your doctor or report to front desk staff by calling (360) 384-2900.
