Up until very recently, I would have told you that no pregnant woman should even own a scale. I can remember very little of the first year after each of my children were born, but I remember the dread with which I’d tiptoe onto that scale at the doctor’s office like it was yesterday.
But now that I’ve seen the hilarious designs by Wendy Gold at art de toilette, I’ve done a 180–I now believe every pregnant woman should have a scale provided it’s this bun in the oven scale. It’s not only pretty (and funny), it’s blissfully free of any sort of numbers. And that may save many a postpartum woman from unnecessary despair. -Mir
