How to Tell if Baby is Too Hot
Knowing how to check your baby's temperature without a thermometer is crucial. You can tell if your baby is too hot if their neck, back, or tummy is sweaty or warm to the touch. (Reference)
Areas to Check for Temperature
Body Part | Temperature Indicator | Accuracy |
---|---|---|
Neck | Sweaty or Warm | Accurate |
Back | Sweaty or Warm | Accurate |
Tummy | Sweaty or Warm | Accurate |
Hands/Feet | Cold | Inaccurate |
- Avoid checking hands and feet: These areas are usually colder than the rest of the baby's body and won't provide an accurate indication of overall temperature. (Reference)
