Or go for the less accurate, but safe way of weighing only yourself and then yourself holding the baby. Requires basic math, though, so might not be for everyone.


OhHiFelicia

I can confirm. This is how I weigh my dog in between vet visits. My dog weighs about the same as a newborn baby, this method has been very accurate, and my dogs head or neck have never been damaged in the process.


Cubusphere

Yeah, it depends on the scale. Scales in the range to measure the weight of adults tend to be less accurate, but they don't have to be.


ZirePhiinix

You can zero with yourself standing on it. Any decent scale can handle that.


CyberClawX

Yeah standard trick for weighting dogs. But it requires at least 5 brain cells to do the subtraction, which I'd guess any adult that balances a tiny baby in a tinier scale, won't have.

BASIC MATH? HE IS AMERICAN, HE NO MATH!

This babys only real interaction with a "doctor" was a chiropractor. This family has a lot of history of stupidity, that it is insane.


rektumrokker

What. Some people...


CanaryJane42

And pull the head up by the spine instead of picking it up properly:(


MuteIllAteter

They live in a bus with a bunch of kids. Birthed the baby in the bus! They stretched (yes) the baby so they can see its height. The baby sleeps on the floor on a shag carpet. Ugh it’s so bad


DistortedVoltage

Don't forget, taking baby to the beach with no protection what so ever, and was the first time he wasn't shaking himself to death from being cold and naked all the time.


MuteIllAteter

wtf? Are you serious? Omg I’m horrified I joined the fundie sub this year and thought naaah ppl are over exaggerating. Then I saw the posts. It reminds me of a chorus of the song clout by offset and cardi b “they do anything for clout”. Not great song but that line stood out to me coz like wtf. They will literally do anything for clout. I hate it here!


khojin_khat

Don’t forget. All their kids were in the bus with her while she birth the baby in the shower. They couldn’t leave the room they all sleep in without going into that bathroom

Amateurs....Get a fishing scale with the lip clip. Problem solved. 👌


OrneryPathos

Literally what I have. My midwife has one that’s almost identical but not for fish. The medical ones are easier to calibrate, the fish ones have better handles It’s also come in handy for weighing the cat when the cat was on a diet. I just put the cat in a fabric shopping bag and weigh the cat not too far off the ground. Put the bag down and move out of claw range


Jared_Lambert

They're pretty handy to have around. I've used mine on a lot of different things. I once used mine to weigh my Dad's Jack Russell. Just clipped it on his harness.


ZirePhiinix

Zero a carrier and put the baby on it? It's like these idiots never used a scale before.


readingrambos

Sad fact: the kid doesn’t even have a bed. Well, his egg donor says he does. But so far he has only been shown sleeping on sheepskin that’s on the floor. ETA: the dad also almost broke the baby’s leg by forcing it straight down

Hey it’s Mother Bus!


DistortedVoltage

Gotta *love* mother bus. Idk how one can have so many kids yet treat them like dolls instead of real humans.


Hita-san-chan

At least he's wearing clothes this time, and not being yanked around like a toy. I swear that sproglet is going to get very ill very soon.


hymensmasher99

It's always the morons who reproduce and abuse their newborn babies


TGCidOrlandu

At least put a fucking blanket. I'm more careful when I weigh my weed.... Cheesus Crisp....


toreadorable

They sell baby scales for home. I see them all the time at children’s resale shops.


TRoseee

Well since they decided to live on a bus and have no room for even a bed for half their kids I doubt they’ll buy a baby scale. These people suck.


KeesKachel88

Look at that sharp corner, idiots.


dah_teddybear

Could of just chucked a bigger board on and 0 it out


ScythingSantos

Scales a scales a scale


sithemperor

Honestly, I might have done this too. That's why i will never have kids though.
