But the midwives 15 years ago still told us the babies' weight in pounds.
Btw, in the UK a pound is 454 g, in Germany it's 500 g 🤷🏻♀️

@MiBro@bildung.social @vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de @simonzerafa@infosec.exchange @katemorley@hachyderm.io Even in the Netherlands, which is firmly metric, babies' weight is traditionally given in pounds. Where a pound is exactly 500g/0.5kg.
