digital thermometers

Does anyone know if you can get false high readings? I just took Morgans temp cos he felt hot and it was normal then I did it again and got 38.2.

Which do I beleive?

I did that and it hasnt said I have a temperature. His readings are all over the place. Not sure what to think.

I don't think u can get false positives.... If u know what I mean?
I think.... With kids, they move, an digital ones r v sensitive, so I lo mves away a little, temp will go down?
Well that's my thought anyway, coz if I check mine twice, I get the same temp, but with cians it can be up to hVe a degree different? So to be on the safe side id go with the higher reading
That make sense? Xx
