Can you please recommend your rectal thermometer

It seems as though every thermometer isnt that accurate. Do they sell one that is strictly a rectal one??? Please reccomend yours that is very accurate.

Thanks.

Is This specifically a rectal one??? I only ask because I have bought thermometers and some say to take a degree off if its done rectally. I dont want to do that. I just want one that is designed and programmed for a rectal temp.

Yes, it's only rectal. Here's the description from the BRU site:

Product Description
Vicks Baby Rectal Thermometer for ages infant to 2 years old brings new innovation to the thermometer market; its design has been tailored to the specific anatomical area being measured. This design makes rectal temperature-taking quicker, more accurate and, best of all, more comfortable for the baby. Parent-friendly features include an ergonomic, compact size; a guard against over-insertion; a flexible tip; and a large backlit LCD positioned on the side for easy viewing. In addition, the thermometer only requires one hand to operate, freeing the other hand to soothe the infant.
