 Didn't work for my baby September 9, 2005

Seemed like the perfect solution, but didn't work for my baby. The medicine she takes daily wouldn't go through the pacifier when she sucked. Maybe the medicine is too thick or maybe the pacifier just doesn't work
Great Idea, bad exicution! July 9, 2005

We recived two sets of these thermometers for our twins baby shower. When the boys had their first cold (around 2 months) we figured we should give the pacifires a try. We had a wonderful thermometer that we used for our daughter but figured these pacifiers would give us no struggling, and spare us having to have a sick newborn sit still with a thermometer up their behind!
The boys LOVE their "Binkys" (Gerber/Avent/Nuk Pacifiers) but HATED these. First we took their temperature, only to find it to be 97.3 (or somewhere around normal) and then (by recommendation/order of our pediatrician) received 102.3 readings (or something like that) rectally with our old thermometer!! Not to mention that the boys were practically gagging on this abnormally shaped/sized pacifier!
Sure enough we had to give them medicine, yet I knew that giving them medicine through a pacifier would be trouble (that's like putting vegetables in chocolate to get your child to eat it, BAD idea!). And it was! The boys grabbed the pacifier eagerly (comfort objects) and immediately spit them out wailing, also resulting in them staining their clothing, and my clothing with cough medicine! I swear they wouldnt take a pacifier for days, they were practically traumatized!
My advice, take their temperature with a "good", digital thermometer rectally, and disperse medicine either in a bottle/spoon (mixed with food or liquid) or use a baby medicine dispenser... just PLEASE stay away from this product!

My baby never would take either of these pacifiers. Plus, every time we called the doctor, they wanted a rectal temperature anyways. Save your money, and buy a quick read digital thermometer that can be used rectally.
 Worth it! April 19, 2005

This product is fabulous! I bought it just to give it a try, not really knowing what to expect. My son hates having his temperature taken but I pop this thermometer in his mouth and he doesn't mind. He'll even sleep with it in his mouth allowing me to check his temp without waking him up. Not mention giving him his medicine without dealing with medicine spoons and droppers. I would recommend these to anyone.
Not what expected February 4, 2005

This seemed like the perfect idea. However, my daughter kept spitting it out (and she uses a pacifer) but for some reason, she couldn't keep this one in her mouth. Some people say it works just fine, but for me it didn't. I went out and bought an ear thermometer.
