Infantometer – Baby Length Measuring Board, up to 90 cm
₹2,000.00 (ex. GST) (₹2,360.00 incl. GST)
Measures a baby’s length lying down. Broad acrylic base, one sliding side, dual cm / inch scale up to 90 cm, folding sides, about 1 kg. Made in India.
An infantometer measures a baby’s length while the baby lies flat, which is how length is taken for newborns and infants who cannot yet stand. This one has a broad acrylic base, a fixed headboard and one sliding side that you bring up to the baby’s feet, then read the length on a dual scale in centimetres and inches, up to 90 cm.
Why clinics and parents choose it
- Measures lying down. The baby lies on the base with the head against the fixed end; the sliding side meets the heels. No standing, no guesswork with a tape.
- Two scales, read directly. Centimetres and inches are printed side by side, up to 90 cm, so the reading matches whichever unit your records use.
- Folds for storage. The sides fold down, so it slips into a cupboard or a doctor’s bag between check-ups.
- Light to carry. It weighs about 1 kg, easy to take on home visits or to an outreach camp.
- Made in India.

Where it is used
Paediatric clinics, maternity and newborn wards, anganwadi and health-camp teams, and parents who track a baby’s growth at home. It measures length only. For a baby’s weight, see HSCo’s baby scales; once a child can stand, height is taken on a height measuring scale (stadiometer), listed for children from 24 months. The difference is explained in What is a stadiometer?
Taking an accurate reading
- Place the infantometer on a firm, flat surface.
- Lay the baby on the back, head touching the fixed end.
- Keep the legs straight, gently if needed; a second person helps.
- Slide the moving side until it rests against both heels, then read the scale at that edge.
