see, while i know you can't suck snot into your mouth with this thing, i physically couldn't do it. i was dry heaving while i was typing the word snot (and again here). i have a mucus thing. it is not good. thank god my kid isn't a snotty one. ugh. i'm gonna puke.

Everyone I know that has one swears by it.

I just can't. Not possible. My kid can go around all snotty before I'll use one. Stick out tongue

I may have to get it. I hate when LT has boogeys and am constantly getting them out (yup, I admit it). I just feel like he will feel better if he breathes better.

lilmgirl · March 2012

It's called a nose frida (or something like that). We have one. I've never used it but H has. Sometimes getting snot out of your baby's nose calls for drastic measures. Until they know how to "blow," (heh heh), there's not much else you can do but this.

The NP is our peds office strongly recommended that thing, but I just couldn't do it. Yuck!

frlcb · March 2012

I felt the same way, until we got one. It is SO much better than a bulb syringe.

I thought it was the grossest thing until I got the booger-iest kid in the world. I got something similar and it's awesome. Gross but awesome. Those bulb suckers pale in comparison.

She won't let me do it anymore, though. It's a wrestling match so she just stays snotty now.

I kinda loved it Embarrassed

, honestly the bulb grosses me out more. Also, there is a little filter in there so really everythings stays well contained. We could only use this for the first year or so, then she fought me so much she just stayed snotty (until about two when she could blow).

See, I have crazy ninja skills with the nasal aspirator. I've never had a problem getting snot out with it.

Now, if they didn't fight with the nose frida it MIIIIGHT be worth it in my book. But since they do....

ringstrue · March 2012

if I have another kid I'm getting one.

EloiseWeenieSkipperdee · March 2012

Lol, I just deleted that baby steals email.

eclaires · March 2012

That thing is the nastiest f*cking thing on the planet, but OMG it is amazing and works so well. I love it.

mominatrix · March 2012

Xander has this crazy love for the nasal aspirator. Like, he loves that thing. He gets all sad when he doesn't have a runny nose and doesn't need me to use it.

I had a friend from vietnam who skipped the apparatus and just sucked the snot out of the kids nose with their own mouth. now you may all vomit. and im not kidding

Ha, this. I don't have this one, but I have something similar (the nose frida). It is freaken amazing. it de-boogers the baby in less then 10 seconds vs. what seems like an eternity with the bulb.

I also don't think its gross. There is a filter, its a baby...eh not that gross to me.

mysticporter · March 2012

No lie, younger DD taught herself to blow her nose when she wasn't even 18 months old yet because she hated the regular bulb syringe snot sucker thing so much. This would be like her worst nightmare.

caden · March 2012

I have one too. It's gross. Even though you don't suck in the snot (there's a filter), it's still gross as hell. But I still prefer it to the bulb syringes b/c it's more powerful and easier on their noses.

JeniLovesNeil · March 2012

I love the NoseFrida. PJ has had a stuffy/runny nose for a week now and I swear by this thing. It looks gross, but it isn't. I'll do anything to get my boy to sleep and breathe better.

That is what my parents did with us. That's love.
