Frida Digital Rectal Thermometer for Babies, Newborns & Infants
12 sold in last 24 hours
- KNOW THE FEVER THRESHOLD: A rectal reading of 100.4°F or higher counts as a fever. The Quick-Read digital rectal thermometer gives you that number at home, so you know whether to call the pediatrician.
- QUICK FIRST READ: A quick read appears at around ten seconds, while the final reading lands at thirty. Wait for the second reading before writing anything down or calling anyone—the early number is still settling.
- PLACEMENT DECIDES THE READING: Insert only as far as the manual directs, hold the thermometer steady and keep your baby still until it finishes. A probe that shifts partway through is why two readings disagree.
- RECTAL ONLY, & CLEAN EVERY TIME: Wipe the probe with rubbing alcohol or soap and water before and after each use and let it dry. A thermometer used rectally is never afterwards used in anybody's mouth, whatever the rush.
- MADE FOR THE 2AM DECISION: Fridababy makes practical, parent-first solutions for the parts of parenting nobody prepares you for. Includes one Quick-Read digital rectal thermometer; battery details are in the manual.

Select a product to estimate shipping.Taking a baby's temperature is rarely the hard part. Knowing what the number means, and whether to trust it, is.
What counts as a fever: The threshold depends on the method, which is why a number from one method cannot be compared against a number from another. Rectal is 100.4 degrees F. Oral is 99.6 degrees F. Underarm is 98.6 degrees F. Rectal is the method used for babies and young children, up to around age three, and it is the reading a pediatrician will usually ask you for.
Waiting for the final reading: There is a quick read at about ten seconds and a final reading at thirty. They are not the same number. If you take the ten-second figure and treat it as final, you will sometimes get a result that does not match what the doctor's office gets an hour later. Wait the full thirty seconds.
If your reading disagrees with the doctor's: Check placement before you assume the thermometer is at fault. Insert only as far as the manual says, keep the probe still and in contact, and keep your baby from squirming until the reading finishes. Then take it again and wait for the final number. Whatever the thermometer says, symptoms and behavior are what your pediatrician wants to hear about, so call them with your concerns rather than working from the number alone.
Cleaning: Clean the probe with rubbing alcohol or with soap and water before and after every use, then let it air-dry. A thermometer used rectally does not then go in a mouth.
Battery: The manual lists the battery type and how to change it. Worth reading before the night you need it.
