Process

To get a good sampling, we need a minimum of 3 separate items of the same type weighed, and then averaged. 5 sample averages would be better, if that's possible. It's even better if the samples are taken from multiple brands (ie. Huggies 3T, Pampers 3T, Luvs 3T ...).

All weights need to be done in grams, for now.

If there is too much variance (ie. they're not obviously converging on a weight range within a small margin of error), then we can't set a standard weight (this is OK!)

If you can't weigh the products yourself, but you are able to get single-item-weights from the Internet for multiple product lines, that can also work.

Post any weights you find here, as a comment, and check off the box if the weight is "finalized" (ie. it's a composite average, per above).

Once we get these sorted, there will be a separate issue for actually registering them with the app.
