Your baby is a fragile, vulnerable little creature. We can't stress this enough, but there are a number of precautions to be taken to ensure your baby's safety when bathing, whatever his or her age. Using the right water temperature is essential to avoid scalding or freezing accidents. The ideal accessory? A baby bath thermometer.
Remember, bath water should be between 35 and 37 degrees, i.e. body temperature, while room temperature should be approximately 22 degrees.
To be on the safe side, we obviously don't recommend dipping your finger in the water, as its heat fluctuates according to your condition. The essential tool to help you is a bath thermometer.
There are several types of thermometer to measure the ideal temperature and help you maintain it throughout baby's bath.
The great thing about a digital thermometer is that it's very quick and easy to read. No more waiting for long minutes to find out if the bath water is correct. With this model, you'll benefit from highly accurate temperature readings.
Be careful, however, as its technology is subject to battery operation. However, the digital bath thermometer consumes very little energy, as it switches off or goes into standby mode as soon as it is no longer in motion.
The warning signals are many and varied. Some models feature a gentle audible alarm, while others display a small light to warn you of a temperature change.
First on the bath thermometer market before the arrival of the small digital, the mercury or liquid thermometer is less common in sales outlets, but still very much in vogue. It's very easy to use, and will appeal to parents who are reluctant to use new technologies. It's also a safe choice, as it never breaks down. Its age-old technology has everyone agreeing on its precision and durability. No need to worry about changing batteries, because mercury will never fail.
A small downside for the more fussy or simply those who don't necessarily have good eyesight. This traditional bath thermometer is sometimes more difficult to decipher than a simple reading on a digital screen. It requires very little effort to assess the exact temperature between measurements. It's also a model that requires a little more patience, as it takes longer to give the temperature once immersed in water.

Small, cute and fragile, our babies are the center of our lives. For them, we want the best possible care. There are several types of instruments for taking baby's temperature. Whether you need to know the temperature of your baby's bath, the temperature of his or her room, or simply to take his or her temperature, we present a selection of thermometers suitable for all these situations.
Body temperature is a key indicator of your baby's health. A rise in temperature (fever) can signal infection, inflammation or other conditions requiring medical attention. In infants, fever can occur quickly and progress rapidly, which is why it's so important to be able to measure it accurately and without delay.
Taking your baby's temperature regularly, especially if he or she seems uncomfortable or is showing symptoms, is an essential step in monitoring his or her general condition.
