baby temperature monitoring device?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

A temperature monitoring device continuously or frequently measures your baby's body temperature. The most reliable method is using a digital thermometer to measure from the underarm (3 minutes) or rectally (1 minute). Non-contact infrared forehead thermometers are fast but can read up to 0.5°C lower; so in critical situations (fever ≥38°C in babies under 3 months), confirm with underarm or rectal measurement. Smart patch-type devices can be convenient for overnight monitoring but have variable accuracy. Whatever device you use, if fever is 38°C or above and your baby isn't acting normally, consult your pediatrician.
