10 of the best room thermometers
Babies can't manage their temperature in the same way adults can so it's important to ensure their room is just right
Your little one's temperature can be a bit of an obsession when you're a new mum - and we totally get that.
A baby can't monitor how hot or cold they are in the same way adults can and so it's important for us to make sure the atmosphere - especially in the room they're sleeping in - is just right.
To help you out, there are loads of great room monitors out there. Here are our pick of the best.
We've also got some great tips on how to keep your baby sleeping safely in hot weather.
1. The Gro Company Gro-Egg, £14.99
A simple but brilliant idea - and such a popular thermometer.
It changes colour as the temperature changes so you can be sure at a glance that everything is just right.
Available from: Argos
2. Philips Avent Bath And Room Flower Thermometer, £11.99
Cute 2-in-1 number that you can pop in the bath to make sure the water's not too hot - or cold - and your little one can use it as a bath toy too.
Then, fish it out, dry it up and use it in their nursery.
3. Dreambaby Crocodile Bath And Baby Thermometer, £14.99
Another thermometer that doubles as a bath toy.
This one's available from loads of places - including your local supermarket. Great price, too.

4. NSA'UK Digital Hygrometer And Thermometer, £12.99

One of the sweetest-looking baby thermometers out there.
There's a warning flashlight that goes off if the bath water is too hot to ensure your little one doesn't get scolded. Plus it's brilliant value.

9. Motorola Baby Monitor, £39.99
If you haven't got a baby monitor yet but are thinking of getting one, this nifty number is a monitor and thermometer in one.
