Where should you put the thermometer to check your 8 month old baby temperature?

It depends on what kind of thermometer you have.
If you are simply looking for a general idea, place a themometer under the arm. You need to hold their arm down - which is usually easier if you can lay them down and give them a fun toy to look at.
If accuracy is important, a rectal thermometer is best for infants. In that case, be sure to use a thermometer intended for that use. It usually doesn't bother them, and if you can do it when you do a diaper change... they barely notice you are doing anything unusual.
