Product Description

Editorial Review

As every new parent will quickly discover when baby has her first cold, a fast-reading and accurate thermometer is an essential addition to your baby-care supplies. By building one into a sturdy pacifier with an orthodontic nipple, this pacifier-style thermometer makes it even easier to take baby's temperature in a natural and noninvasive way. Featuring nontoxic materials and durable one-piece construction that is waterproof and impact-resistant, the pacifier thermometer has a fast, 90-second readout, a memory recall function that will display the last temperature taken so you can track temperature changes, and an automatic shutoff that turns the digital thermometer off after 25 minutes. In lieu of a loud beeping sound, the pacifier will play a gentle melody whenever baby's temperature exceeds 99.9 degrees F. Includes detailed instructions in English and Spanish, a limited one-year warranty, and a storage cover to protect the nipple from damage. --Chris Burns

5.0 out of 5 stars Pediatricians don't like it, September 13, 2002

If you're going to buy this, be forewarned. The pediatricians will make you take a rectal temperature if you use this. They aren't convinced of its accuracy. Every time I have used it, however, it's been accurate to within a degree. I use it to screen to see if I need to take a rectal temperature, for example if it's over a hundred I usually take it rectally. I wish doctors would trust it, though

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay if your child already takes that shape pacifier, October 18, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: TenderTykes Digital Pacifier Thermometer, White (Health and Beauty)

I had trouble using this themometer because my child's pacifier was a different shape than this one-- so he didn't really want to suck on it long enough to get a good reading. The couple of times he was able to suck on it long enough, the reading seemed fairly accurate.
Overall it is a fantastic idea-- and fairly inexpensive. So it is probably worth trying on your child.

5.0 out of 5 stars For the money, it's worth a try!, May 27, 2002

The idea is a good one, however if your child is used to a different type of pacifier then chances are he/she will not take it. When speaking to other moms we all agree, it depends on your child. The product is inexpensive. I reccomend buying the product and trying it because if it works on your baby it is a lifesaver. My son was born 4 weeks early and his immune system was not great. He was sick very often in his first few months and this pacifier made things a little easier. For the money, it's worth a try!
