[blparent] talking rectal thermometer

I got mine at beyondsight.com.  There are plenty of other independent living 
aids places that sell them as well.  I took my baby's temperature under her 
arm because I wasn't willing to put either of us through the trauma of 
trying to get a rectal reading.

kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at 
evening.--Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.

I was told in a  child berth class that  a mouth thermometer is not good
option for taking a baby temperature. I  should take it either under arm or
in rectal, the only thing I will need  is to adjust the  temperature reading
result by the way of taking it. My         sister- in- law who has a 7 month
old says that a rectal way of taking is most precise. Any way, I need a
talking thermometer with a straight prop.
