Snot sucker

NosefridaNosefrida is a doctor recommended nasal aspirator that removes mucous from your child's nose. When your child has a cold with a runny stuffed nose, it can be frustrating when they can not blow their own nose. Congestion interferes with sleep, feeding and makes for an overall cranky child, and parent too.



Place the large tube at the child's nostril and the red part at the other end in your own mouth. Apply gentle suction to begin with, increasing suction as necessary until you see mucous in the large tube. The filter will protect you from getting anything near your own mouth.


NasalI thought things were supposed to improve with technology.   We used a similar device when our kids were small, but it had a ball at the end that you squeezed (like a turkey baster).  We didn’t suck the snot out personally.
