Worth it for the concerned, data loving parent
Our baby was born 5lbs full-term so we constantly stress about if he’s gaining weight. With breastfeeding there is no way to know exactly how much he was feeding so we wanted a scale to help guide us. The Hatch has been perfect for this. I can’t speak to how precise it is (I didn’t place a scientifically measured weight on it to see what it said) but I will say based on the weights at the doctors office it’s very good. It is great for consistency... pre- and post- feed weighs and showing over the course of a week or few days the progress the little guy is making. What’s even better is the app. It is necessary to use the scale (there is no screen that shows the weight). But it records the weights, feed time/amounts, diapers, timing and duration of feeds, sleep, pumping schedule, etc. You can enter data manually or hit the start button and have the app record it for you. There is a dashboard that keeps the info readily available so you know when the next feed will be.

Perfect gift for first time parents and anyone who plans to breastfeed
My sister is expecting her first baby soon and plans to breastfeed. When our first child was born a few years ago he struggled to gain weight in his first month. We hired a lactation consultant and took him to the doctor for bi-weekly weight checks. This product would have been a life saver for us! Knowing how much milk your baby is drinking with each feed is reassuring to any nursing mom and provides useful info for your pediatrician as they monitor your baby's growth. Combining the smart scale with a modern changing pad is such a great idea. I know this will look great on her changing table and can't wait to give this to her at her baby shower!

Consistent and accurate
I 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 she's 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 I'd 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 I'm not sure what solution there is to that since the app also lets you log diapers, pumping, feeding, etc. It's a great app. It also does round to the .25 oz, which is fine for my baby because she wasn't a premie, but may not work for people who need more accurate amounts.

The Sexy Scale
This is the Tesla of changing pads and scales. It's smart, sexy, sophisticated, simple, and essential! Every baby mama needs a changing pad so why not have the one with all the pverrbial bells and whistles, but without a single button! The design is brilliant! We don't tend to fuss too much about how much the bebe is pooping or eating but we love tracking her weight. It took a bit of effort to figure out how to set it up but once we got it going it's been a dream. I'm going to look for a cover (even though I love the simplicity of the look as is) because it's a cold surface for a naked lil body. For now, I just put a cloth diaper or small blanket down before changing her if she's undressed.

GET IT!!!
THE MOST AMAZING BABY PRODUCT IN MY HOUSE! I am in love with this thing. I am a first-time mom that writes everything down - feedings, sleep, etc. this item and the app has made my life so much easier. Everyone in the house knows what’s going on without me updating or summarizing the day. Passing off my little one to my mom and my husband has become sooooo muncher easier. Cannot rave enough about this product or the app that comes with it. It is amazing!

it's also just a better changing pad
I had my last child 5 years ago. At that time, she had trouble eating and after not gaining weight sufficiently, I had to lug her to a local center to be weighed every couple days. This go, it's such a comfort to be able to track weight directly from home. On top of the convenience factor, it's also just a better changing pad. The shape and curve seems more comfortable. The wipeable surface is awesome – I hated having to throw gross fabric covers in the wash again and again, and having to make sure I always had an extra one in case of accident. And it just plain looks nice – both the pad itself and the well designed app. 100% recommend for anyone!

Love this scale!
Was hesitant to buy but I love this. No plug. Just open you app to zero the scale and then it weighs. Compared to our doctors scale it’s spot on with little discrepancy. Must be on a hard surface. Easy to wipe clean. Fits standard changing tables of all kinds. Beautiful design

... my son a few months ago and am SO happy I did
I bought this right before I had my son a few months ago and am SO happy I did, even though it was a bit more expensive than a normal changing pad: -looove that I can just wipe it off when things get messy. I have enough laundry to clean lol so it's nice not to have to also wash a changing pad cover -he's an eating champ now but it was really reassuring the first month when i had no idea what I was doing and I could see how much he was eating when breastfeeding -It's wonderful not to have to pack him up to head to the doc's office if I want to see how much he weighs. I like that I can see all of his weight charted out in the app graph -the color works perfectly in my baby boy's room but neutral enough if we ever had a girl! :) Highly recommend to any new parents out there. The first month can be so overwhelming and having this really gave me the confidence that my baby was eating and gaining enough! One less thing to worry about...

Peace of mind for a breastfeeding mother
The Hatch Baby is fantastic. As a new mom, it was amazing not only to know that my baby was growing and thriving, but also to get a sense of how much milk he was eating. This was also critical for when I was going back to work to make sure I understood how much I would need to be pumping. I highly recommend the Hatch Baby. Also, I love the easy to clean design!

Love it so far!
As a changing pad: it's pretty great! Easy to clean, feels comfortable (not too soft but not too firm either), and I like the safety straps. I would have like it better if the side walls were a little taller but it's not too bad. As a scale: so far seems to be very accurate. We weighed the baby before going to the pediatrician and before going to the lactation consultant, both times the readings matched what we saw in the doctor's office and in the hospital's scales. Having had a preemie, we were really concerned about his weight gain/keeping him on target for feedings and the scale allows us to know how much he took from breastfeeding and adjust the amount of supplement baby needs, between medical appts. Haven't had have any connectivity issues. Now considering other Hatch Baby products :)
