What is the accurate position for weighing a baby?

According to GOSH, a child should be measured lying down and facing upwards until they are 2 years of age. This is also known as measuring ‘supine’.

They also state that during a measurement, the baby should be positioned with their:

Feet together.

Heels touching the measuring mat’s back plate.

Legs out straight and aligned with their body.

Bottom touching against the backboard.

Scapula/shoulder blade, wherever possible, touching against the backboard.
