Other info
The Seca 334 baby scale supports calculating weighted feeds (also known as transfer weights or test weighing) through its built-in Breast-Milk-Intake-Function (BMIF), which automatically computes the difference between two weight measurements to determine the amount of milk a baby has consumed during feeding. This feature is specifically designed for scenarios like breastfeeding assessments, where you weigh the baby before and after feeding to find the intake volume (typically displayed in grams, as the weight change reflects the milk transferred).
Here's how the BMIF works, based on the scale's user manual:
- Weigh the baby before feeding and let the scale stabilize on the reading.
- Press and hold the STORE key for about 2 seconds to save the initial weight (an "ST0" indicator confirms it's stored, and this value persists even if the scale turns off).
- After feeding, weigh the baby again.
- Briefly press the STORE key to activate the differential display, which subtracts the stored pre-feed weight from the current post-feed weight and shows the exact difference (e.g., the milk intake).
- Press STORE again briefly to deactivate the function if needed.
This process handles the subtraction math for you, overwriting any prior stored value with a new one if repeated. The scale has a capacity of 44 lbs (20 kg), with graduations of 5g up to 10 kg and 10g beyond, making it precise for this purpose. It's portable, battery-powered, and includes other features like TARE (for zeroing out diapers or clothing) and Auto-HOLD for stable readings.
