I hate doing this, but I know it's the most acurate for infants...my ?? is, how long do you have to keep the thermometer in there for?

Send hubby to the local supermarket for a digital. The old fashioned ones are IMO a waste. I can never get an accurate read.

Stacy, if you decide to take it with the old fashioned one, then I would time it for 2 mins... I hope Cassidy feels better soon! Give her a big hug and kiss from me, Danielle, and Sofia!!
