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 ...

Have you heard of febrile fits/seizures?

Simple febrile fits commonly occur in children between 6 months to 6 years old. There may be a history of such fits in the family. Fits usually occur with high fevers, especially when the temperature reaches 38.5ºC or more. In a fit, the child's arms and legs will jerk involuntarily; up-rolling of the eyes and teeth clenching are common signs. The child may also pass motion and/or urine during a fit. Fits usually last a few minutes, with some as long as 15 minutes. A child will commonly feel sleepy after a fit. There is a 30% chance that the child will have another fit, especially if the body temperature maintains at 38.5ºC and above. The actual cause of febrile fits has not been clearly established but there may be a background family history associated with it. Simple febrile fits do not cause brain damage, nor do they cause delay in child's development.
