[...] should definitely get one if you are having a baby because it will come in handy during the first few weeks. Many women love giving these as Baby Shower Gifts as uncute as they may be, the moms will love [...]

Thanks Jessica!

Eva, I did that once last year.. I will probably have to resort to doing the same this year. I asked the Nosefrida people and they said that they definitely recommend it for toddlers! The trick is to sort of make it a game.. like let them do it on you sometimes etc. Worth a try anyway!

My little trick for holding down Lauren for de-snotification is to sit down on the floor, lay her down in front of me and hold her arms down with my legs. It’s the only way she’ll let me near her with the snot bulb.

This is a really neat invention. I am glad that the baby snot can’t go all the way up the tube, though! I found you through your home blog, and I will definitely be using your monkey tree mural idea in our nursery- it is the BEST I have seen, either hand-drawn or vinyl.

You’re supposed to stick the bulb syringe up in their nose? I thought you just put it at the end of the nose. No wonder it doesn’t work for me, though TK still hates it. I always end up using Q-tips, which she hates even more but work better. Who knew I would need a lesson on how to properly use a bulb syringe?

I am so getting one of these. ASAP.

I have never heard of it, but am willing to try it with our newbie. The bulb syringe made our first kiddo scream. Thanks for the recommendation.

I LOVE this thing too. It is the single item that made CSV bearable last winter.

Maybe I could think in buying one of these when my baby was way younger. Today, at 1yr and 2m I wouldn’t be able to get him to let me use that, even when he is sleeping or if his nose is really stuffed. Ariana, you are not the only one with uncooperative child!
But I like this product, maybe when my second child is born I will try to order one…

LOL Kari, well Samm says she can still use it on Mia.. maybe she does the full body tackle? I did that once out of desperation last spring – or maybe everyone’s babies are super cooperative (except mine of course!)

where were you with this review a year ago ariana???
i so wish i would have known about this!! liam had chronic stuffy/runny nose problems as an infant – and of course we used the bulb syringe (yes only the hospital one worked for us too!)
