I thought it was you that had the problem judging by your previous questions. :)
Rectally is the most accurate anyways.

I don't know any kids that WANT their temperature taken rectally but if thats the way he prefers then do it that way. Its more accurate that way anyways.

Try this thermometer. It swipes across the forehead and is as accurate as a rectal. My pediatrician says it is the best on the market.
I am assuming you are asking for an alternative.

It's not fun for you, I'm sure. How about buying on of those that just swipes across the forehead? It takes about 1 second and he doesn't have to do anything. They use one at my pediatricians, so they must be accurate. Good luck.

i imagine the ideal thanks to take somewhat ones temp. will be with the help of the ear or the armpit. She is on the age the position she would nicely be beginning to tooth. My daughters bronchial asthma has been extremely undesirable the previous week and that i took her to the overall practitioner to get a flu shot, yet they did not supply it to her considering she replaced into sick. basically wait until eventually she is going to the overall practitioner- she should be fantastic! no matter if it continues to be occurring and she has a fever, try some toddler Tylenol.

nothing wrong with taking a rectal temp, he will grow out of that eventually...try getting a kid to keep a thermometer in their louth as long as it takes......
