“Should I wake up my sick child to take her temperature?” <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

I recently saw a friend post this exact question on Facebook recently.  I think this is a common dilemma many parents face.  Our kids need sleep when they are sick, but we don’t want to allow the fever to get too high!  Now there is a solution – a new wearable badge allows you to track your child’s temperature from your smartphone!<\/p>\n

TempTraq – Wearable, Wireless Thermometer<\/span><\/h2>\n

The TempTraq <\/a>is a self-adhesive badge that you place underneath your child’s arm.  Download the app and you can easily track your child’s temperature.  It can be worn for 24 hours and alert you when your child’s fever reaches your preset level.  The patch has a thickness of about a quarter. <\/p>\n

For babies or older children this probably won’t be an issue.  However, I did ask a friend whose toddler had a fever to test this out for me.  For a toddler, having a patch under his arm added to the frustration of being sick. <\/p>\n

The app itself is fantastic.  It allows real time tracking of the temperature and also allows you to track multiple children (we all know how fast the flu travels through the family!)  It updates your child’s temperature every couple of minutes.  You can set custom alert levels. <\/p>\n

For example, if you want to be alerted when the temperature rises over 101 degrees or 102 degrees, you can set that level.  You can also set notes for different points in time, like when you give them medicine or if your child experienced any other symptoms. <\/p>\n
