We got a new scale that uses Bioelectrical impedance analysis to measure body fat etc and it says it is not intended for children under 10 or pregnant women. Is it just inaccurate for the groups or unsafe for them?

I've read that the body fat readings and such aren't very accurate, but we would probably use it to see trends rather than go by the number.
