Thermometer

What kind of Thermometers do you use for taking your kids' temperature. I have one that goes under the tongue, and I feel it is not accurate. Thanks.
Answers
- I just have a store brand (Walgreens or something) arm pit one and it has proven to be very accurate. They do say to add a degree to arm pit temp readings.
- I used one that goes under the armpit, like they use at the doctor's office for little kids.
- The tongue thermometer is the the most accurate. Next to the arm pit. The ear isn't so accurate event hough alot of physycians do it that way. Have a great aday!
