There’s one thing I hate about being a mommy.. just one thing.. Taking my daughters temperature. I just hate having to use a rectal thermometer. It’s not comfortable, but her doctor says it’s the most accurate. So I listened to him. I have an ear one for my us, but couldn’t use it on her since her ears are too small. Then I found the Exergen TemporalScanner.
It’s gentle and extremely easy to use. All you have to do is press and hold down the scan button and lightly slide from the center of the forehead to the hairline and make sure to keep in contact with the skin. The Exergen TemporalScanner measures temperature in two seconds by capturing the naturally emitted heat from the skin over the temporal artery which runs across the forehead and is directly connected to the heart via the carotid artery.

We have this same one! I love it!
That Bald Chick
We have two. We keep one in the house and one in our go bag, so we always have one with us!
The Rebel Chick
What a great thermometer! I don’t think we even have one anymore, I need to get one!
Nichol
We have one very similar and it has worked well! I was never a fan of rectal either. She is too darn cute.
Maryann
I looked at these myself. But now we can use the ear one for all of us.
Billie
I love the second picture, like you want to put what where?
Courtney
Yes, I told her she had to have her temperature taken.. I really think she was shocked that I didn’t bust out the rectal one. Then she got so happy and hugged it 🙂

We use this and there was a learning curve but now it’s just as accurate as the rectal thermometer we use to use

Would have loved one of these when the boys were smaller, it would have been so much easier!
