This was a handy thermometer but when it came to my young ones, after many attemps to use this in the evening when they were sick I needed something different and switched to a digital thermometer.

This only works when you have a compliant baby and sometimes the slightly cold part could make them upset. It worked for a while but I bought a handheld thermometer in the end

This digital thermometer provides an accurate reading in just under 5 seconds. The gentle tip makes it softer, safer and more comfortable, and it washes up easily under the tap.
