What are some rectal temperature taking experiences by moms?

Yes, a mom might tip that you should hold the baby still gently but firmly. This helps in getting an accurate reading.

Well, without more context, it could be many things. It might be about a specific incident related to taking rectal temperatures, like in a medical setting where a patient had an unusual rectal temperature reading that led to a discovery of an illness or condition.

One interesting rectal temperature story could be in a veterinary context. Veterinarians often take the rectal temperature of animals. For example, when a farmer's prize - winning cow was ill, the vet took its rectal temperature to quickly assess its health. It was a bit of a struggle as the cow was large and not too cooperative, but in the end, the vet got the reading and was able to start the appropriate treatment.

Measuring adult rectal temperature is a more invasive method compared to others. However, it is considered one of the most accurate ways to get a core body temperature reading. In a medical setting, it may be used when very precise temperature measurement is required, such as in cases of serious illness or when monitoring a patient's post - surgical condition. But due to its invasive nature, it is not the first - choice method for routine temperature checks.

Stories related to boys' rectal temperature and enema can vary. One might be about a little boy who was scared of having his rectal temperature taken. His mother calmed him down by explaining that it's a quick process to find out if he's really sick. Regarding enemas, there was a case where a young boy had eaten something that made him very constipated. The doctor decided an enema was necessary. The boy was initially very nervous but the medical team was very kind and explained the process step by step to him, and after the enema, he felt much better.

Another aspect of accurate measurement of adult rectal temperature is patient preparation. The patient should be informed about the procedure to reduce anxiety. If there is any fecal matter present, it may affect the reading, so it's advisable to clean the area gently if possible. Also, make sure the environment is at a comfortable temperature as extreme cold or heat in the surroundings could potentially influence the body's natural temperature regulation and thus the rectal temperature reading.

The normal rectal temperature range for teen boys is generally around 37.5 - 38.0 °C (99.5 - 100.4 °F). However, it can vary slightly depending on factors like activity level and time of day.

In a long - term care facility for the elderly, nurses regularly take rectal temperatures to monitor the health of the residents. There was a story where a resident had a slightly elevated rectal temperature for a few days. The nurses closely monitored it and eventually discovered an underlying infection. Thanks to the regular temperature checks, they were able to start treatment early and prevent a more serious illness.

Sorry, I don't really know the specific rectal temperature story. But generally, in a rectal temperature story, there could be details about the tools used for measurement. For example, a special thermometer designed for rectal use.

They're not really common. Rectal temperature is a rather private and medical - related matter. Moms usually don't spank kids while taking their rectal temperature. In modern parenting, spanking itself is also being discouraged, so these two elements together in stories don't occur frequently.
