Babyglow temperature sensing clothing: because you're dumber than your newborn

The most gullible shopper on the planet has to be the first time parent. Well meaning consumers who at their core are scared senseless. Chris Ebejer knows this and has developed a line of Babyglow clothing for newborns meant to communicate changes in your baby's temperature -- the fabric turns white above 37-C or 98.6-F. Ebejer claims to have spent 6 years and more than a million dollars to perfect the fabric -- sure, even though similar, if not exactly the same tech has been around in novelty-Tees for the last 20 years. How much does a single bodysuit cost? Try £20 or about $33 per. Are you really going to trust this man with your treasure, be it carbon or gold?

As a parent of a 1 year old, there appears to be a glaring error in the logic behind this product. Namely, that babies already have a perfectly good mechanism for indicating that they're ill. It's called a SCREAM! If you have a mute baby, maybe this suit might come in handy, but for the rest of us whose children's vocal chords are on top form, this is a dumbass idea.

not always true. My child was lethargic when she had a high temp.

Might have saved the baby in "Trainspotting"?

just put some arctic silver and a Zalman on the babies forehead and he will be fine.

Are you kidding?
Parents don't know how to put their hands on their baby's head anymore and need help?

If you that lazy you don't belong having a baby.

Maybe I'll try to sell those at my site: blossombabyclothes.com/. Haha okay, that picture of the guy with the baby is kind of scary.
