We have one of those smart scales at ghar that sends a small current thing to measure fat. Now that im pregnant i suddenly got tension whether it's ok to stand on it. Anyone knows?
Don't worry about body fat percentages right now, enjoy this phase! I also had a fancy scale but my doctor told me to avoid it during pregnancy and just focus on normal weight tracking. My baby is 2 now and we are both perfectly fine.
Please ask your gynac first! These fat scales use some electrical currents to measure body composition, which doctors usually advise against during pregnancy. It's best to be safe and use a normal weighing machine.
Oh, I was wondering about this too since I'm in my 5th month now and my weight is rising! But then I read that they are not safe because of the current they use. Has anyone else here used them by mistake?
I completely understand how stressful tracking weight can be, I used to overthink every gram! Honestly, please don't use the body fat scales because they send small currents that are not recommended. Just use a normal scale to keep your mind at peace.
I am actually trying to conceive right now and my elder sister told me to avoid these smart body fat scales. They pass a small current to measure fat which might not be safe. A normal simple weighing scale is much better.
Hello dear! No, they are not recommended during pregnancy because they work using electrical currents (BIA). Plus, because of amniotic fluid and water retention, the fat reading won't even be accurate. Just use a basic weighing machine.
Haan na, avoid those smart scales. They send a tiny electric current which is not good for the baby. Better to stick to our old simple weighing scale, ho na.
