Hello Ladies,
Hope everyone is doing well. My little one seems pretty fussy lately. I think he may be teething a bit earlier than most. Last night he seemed a bit on the warm side and I attempted to take his temp but all 3 thermometers I have didn't work urggg.
Wondering what kind of thermometer is best for a 3 month old and any tips on how to use it.
Thanks.

Hey there
At Target or Walmart in the baby section they have a three in one set. It has different adapters for the different locations (under arm, mouth and rectal). I like that one best cause you can do under arm for a quick check of temp but rectal is most accurate. The different adapters also mean you dont accidently mix up rectal and oral.
just use some vasaline and you should be good to go. There is also a little book that tells you the normal range for each location. It is normal for rectal to be higher.
Hope that helps!
