Thermometer Recommendation OR What thermometer to buy?!

Hi mummies and first-time mummies!
Would like to share with all fellow mums (and dads) this great love which I had stumbled across! 

I am a mum of two young kiddies both currently below the age of 4. Elder girl A is 3.5y and Didi B is 1y. 

Back when A was a baby in 2013/2014, the in-ear thermometer was (and still is) very popular so as a first time mom, not knowing anything, followed the crowd and bought that for her. 

It's ok to use and served me well. However, when B came along two years or so later, it died on me forcing me to search again for a new thermometer to use for the kids. 

As they are young, they fall sick with fever coughs and cold often, so having a good thermometer on hand is so very important!

And I found the SMARTTEMP! Someone had shared a video on Facebook and it intrigued me, so I got one to try love it for the ease and convenience it brings me as a busy mum!

The Smarttemp is a Bluetooth Thermometer which allows real-time temperature monitoring via an App on your mobile phone. HOW COOL IS THAT?! 
It can also alarm to alert you when fever spikes.. OH MY! Such a useful feature for me as a full time working mum because sleep is so so so important for me to function well the next day. Having an alarm to alert feature, seriously saves me a lot of trouble having to wake every few hours through the night to check their temperature! 

I love how small, thin and compact the Smarttemp is. The device is waterproof and 100% baby safe with no fear of B accidentally swallowing the tiny battery hence it can go into the bath or measure your bath water temperature. 

I simply have to stick it on under the armpit and reach for my phone which is always close by whenever I want to check on the kids temperature. No need for running after them with the use of traditional methods.
I also love the app's temperature recording and graph feature, which helps a lot when mummy's brain can't work well on little sleep 

Here's a picture of the Smarttemp and B when he had the fever for 5 days with a bad flu and cough

Being a full-time working mom with two kids below the age of 4, no maid to help with the household chores, anything that helps make my life easier as a busy mom, I LOVE IT! 

Thank you Smarttemp! You're a lifesaver!

Bacterial vs Viral Infections

Bacterial and viral infections have many things in common. Both types of infections are caused by microbes -- bacteria and viruses, respectively   The Differences Between Bacteria and Viruses Although bacteria and viruses are both too small to be seen without a microscope, they're as different as giraffes and goldfish. Most bacteria are harmless, and some actually help by digesting food, destroying disease-causing microbes, fighting cancer cells, and providing essential nutrients. Fewer than 1% of bacteria cause diseases in people. Viruses are tinier: the largest of them are smaller than the smallest bacteria. All they have is a protein coat and a core of genetic material, either RNA or DNA. Unlike bacteria, viruses can't survive without a host. They can only reproduce by attaching themselves to cells. In most cases, they reprogram the cells to make new viruses until the cells burst and die. In other cases, they turn normal cells into malignant or cancerous cells. Also unlike ...

What are viral infections?

Viruses are very tiny germs. They are made of genetic material inside of a protein coating. Viruses cause familiar infectious diseases such as the common cold, flu and warts. They also cause severe illnesses such as HIV/AIDS, smallpox, and Ebola. Viruses are like hijackers. They invade living, normal cells and use those cells to multiply and produce other viruses like   themselves. This can kill, damage, or change the cells and make you sick. Different viruses attack certain cells in your body such as your liver, respiratory system, or blood. When you get a virus, you may not always get sick from it. Your immune system may be able to fight it off. For most viral infections, treatments can only help with symptoms while you wait for your immune system to fight off the virus.   Antibiotics do not work for viral infections. There are antiviral medicines to treat some viral infections. Vaccines can help prevent you from getting many viral diseases.
