I have this one for DS. Super fast & easy to use (only can be inserted the proper distance) DS is 27 months and i still use it on him. I do it while changing his diaper, it takes no more then 10 seconds or so, depending on how high his fever is.
(Sorry I can't direct link from phone)

I have the Vicks rectal thermometer. It gives a super quick reading and it's made so you insert the proper amount.

I can tell you which one I wouldn't get . . . The American Red Cross rectal one. I have it for DD and the design is great but I recently read tons of reviews where people say it's inaccurate. I'm actually planning to get the Vicks one for #2 since people seem to like it better.

I have this one... I don't think it's inaccurate but it takes soooooo long to take her temp
Eta: mine is the multi site one, but obviously I only use it rectally. Looks like the rectal one itself has horrible reviews
