Ear Thermometer
So I got TWO of those $50 special ear thermometers at my baby shower.
Excuse me but are they SUPPOSED to be completely useless? After following the directions exactly, I took my own temperature and it showed as 95 degrees. (Now I can be a little cold blooded sometimes, but....) 30 seconds later it's 96. Then it's 94. The point of my registering for this piece of junk was for when Vietbabe is having a meltdown and I'm clearly not going to get a thermometer in her buttocks. :mr: A kinder, gentler way to determine if the meltdown means she has a temperature.
So what to do? I next bought a pacifier that said it takes the baby's temp that way. Problem: I tried it and the "beep" didn't go off for ten minutes. Vietbabe doesn't do anything for 10 minutes, much less suck on a oversized, hard, artificial nippy.
Thoughts? Thanks.
