It may not be as exact as others but it does the job. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-thermometer-do-you-have#post-2112383 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 22:07:43 +0000 Grace 2112383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>An under-the armpit one that takes 8 long seconds. But LO got a doctor set and I showed her how to use the toy thermometer. We pretend to wait until it beeps and then look at it. We've been playing with the real one during diaper changes and she patiently waits for the beep now! So much easier than pinning her down! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-thermometer-do-you-have#post-2112279 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 20:04:39 +0000 Anagram 2112279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the forehead kind. I've never had issues with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-thermometer-do-you-have#post-2112258 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 19:51:08 +0000 Tanjowen 2112258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: Hahaha, yep! My LO acts like it's the worst thing ever, but with this one if he squirms it's stuck in his ear and it doesn't matter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-thermometer-do-you-have#post-2112253 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 19:48:17 +0000 matador84 2112253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a Braun in the ear. Love it and I feel like it always reads accurately! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-thermometer-do-you-have#post-2112251 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 19:45:43 +0000 Bao 2112251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Tanjowen: haha pin down, that's the thing! My LO acts like I'm torturing her with the behind the ear one and it moves all over the place because she doesn't sit still! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-thermometer-do-you-have#post-2112246 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 19:41:27 +0000 Tanjowen 2112246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We purchased this one from Target:</p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/braun-thermoscan-ear-thermometer-white-and-blue/-/A-546316" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/braun-thermoscan-ear-thermometer-white-and-blue/-/A-546316</a></p> <p>So far no complaints! And I can easily pin down LO and stick it in his ear to get his temperature. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-thermometer-do-you-have#post-2112222 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 19:24:14 +0000 Bao 2112222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have one of those behind the ear thermometers, and I haven't used it much since I haven't had the need but it was being so finicky last night. I know other thermometers are more accurate but not sure which ones are best. </p> <p>Which thermometer do you have? </p>
