> 3 dayWorks great to weigh your baby, but it wasn’t sensitive enough to check if my baby was getting any milk from me when my supply went down and that is why we bought it. It woukd get 5 stars if it did. Love the app that keeps track of feedings and diaper changes. It’s easy to use. It also has a timet to keep track of feedings that saves in your app!

> 3 dayI love this changing table with the scale it erased so much stress while breastfeeding if my little guy was getting enough/ putting weight on in the first couple weeks! Now it’s just nice to see his progress between pediatrician appointments

> 3 dayAs a breastfeeding mother with a baby that has reflux, feedings can be very difficult. My son would cry after every feeding, leaving me to wonder if hes still hungry or if its just the reflux. I knew I wanted a scale that could measure his feedings accurately and the Hatch advertises that it weighs to .25 ounces. However, I noticed early on that the scale was not accurate. At night, my baby is fed a bottle of pumped breast milk and I would always measure out 4 oz. in a bottle. However, when I would weigh my baby after the feeding, it consistently came up as 3.5 ounces. or even 3.25 ounces. I also once tried with a 1 ounce bottle and it showed up as taking in .5 ounces. When youre trying to calculate how much your baby is taking in per day over 8-10 feedings, a difference of .5-.75 ounces adds up. Some other cons: -Weight can only be checked with the app. This makes it easy to keep track of things as the data is stored on their app but its annoying at 2am when you cannot find your phone. Pros: -Great customer service -Sleek looking product -Nicely designed and easy to use app Ultimately, I decided to return this product due to the inaccuracy but would consider buying again if some enhancements were made to the product to fix it.

> 3 dayEditing my review to say that the team at Hatch is amazing. They offered a replacement without requiring me to ship back the broken one. Thank you! Original review: I keep getting an error message every time I try to set up the scale. When I contacted support they told me it’s damaged. I haven’t done anything rough with it so it must have arrived that way. Now I have to go through the hassle of returning it…not something anyone with a newborn wants to deal with. Avoid this product!

> 3 dayI bought this product because I am still recovering from labor and am unable to leave the house to do a weighted feed anywhere. My baby lost a bit too much weight between birth and the first pediatrician visit. I wanted to be sure she was eating enough and gaining enough weight between that visit and her one month visit. We had our one month visit today, and her weight is very consistent with what this scale has been showing. The consistent weights along with the weighted feeds works great. I was happily surprised that the scale locks on easily to the baby when shes wiggling. The weighted feed also appears to be accurate; I have done it several times over the last few days and it shows a range consistent with how long my baby is feeding and her weight/what she should be eating for her age. Considering this duals as a changing pad, I wish Id have bought this before buying a changing pad. As a scale alone, it does a great job. I will echo what others have mentioned on the cons side that opening the app can be annoying when you have a crying baby, but Im not sure what solution there is to that since the app also lets you log diapers, pumping, feeding, etc. Its a great app. It also does round to the .25 oz, which is fine for my baby because she wasnt a premie, but may not work for people who need more accurate amounts.

> 3 dayI love this scale/changing pad! -It is so easy to clean -I love that you dont have to attach the safety straps -you can weigh baby so accurately -you can weigh baby before and after a feeding to see how much breastmilk baby is getting, helping mothers feel more confident in their breastmilk supply, but also leading to early detection of supply issues -the app is so simple to use, can have a profile for each baby and records all weights and feedings The only thing I dont like about it is it doesnt have an on/off switch, so I feel like the battery is always being used. We take the batteries out if were not going to use it for awhile. I still highly recommend this product.

> 3 dayI love this changing table and the app that you use with it. When my son was first born I loved weighing him before and after feedings to see how much he ate. It was a big comfort to see and have the scale to weight him and see his progress. The app comes with a nap timer so you dont have to try and remember when you put your baby down and for how long. Its not too big and very easy to clean. I highly recommend.

> 3 dayUPDATE: Costumer service reached out to me and we are getting a refund! I am very impressed that they want to make it right. I upgraded my review from a 1 star because of their efforts. THANK YOU! This scale was not accurate for us. If I was not so crazy with a newborn, I would have reached out the company early and tried to figure out the issue. The free app is the best part for tracking babies diapers and feedings.

> 3 dayI bought this because I was struggling to breastfeed my newborn. We would use this scale and app to measure how much breastmilk my little was consuming each feed. As time went on we wound up having to add in formula and I got more comfortable with how much he was getting each feed so we don’t use it as much anymore but it’s still nice to weigh him every once in awhile! I also am so thankful I had it during the first few weeks while I was struggling. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to track nursing feeds or track progress!
