Does the idea of taking your baby's rectal temperature worry you? It should! More and more care providers are recommending that parents avoid taking baby's temperature rectally due to the risk of perforating or damaging tender tissue.

The Pacifier Digital Thermometer by Mabis offers a fast, 90-second readout, orthodontic nipple design, and single piece construction. Features a lullaby fever alarm, memory recall of last reading, and takes a reading every five minutes. Much safer than glass thermometers—and more comfortable for baby.
