Success after IF

Nosefrida is great for stuffy babies

Since Noah has been so sick we bought the Nosefrida and the thing really is great. I thought the blue bulb from the hospital was amazing but the Nosefrida blew it away. He HATES both, with a fiery passion, but at least with the Nosefrida I can get more out at a time, thus having to do it less. This baby has had so much congestion, it is amazing & really sad how much snot he has had. But really, it's insane how much it gets out. I'm glad we got it becauyse I feel it has kept so much from going into his throat/lungs.

Re: Nosefrida is great for stuffy babies

  • I just bought that the other day because I'd heard such good things about it from friends.  Yay!
  • never heard of it, but I am intrigued!

    I must try to find one locally.

  • We got one after DD got her first cold, but she got better before we could use it. I am so glad we have it on hand for next time!

    Because we're fancy like that.

  • We got one last winter since Luke was just constantly stuffy and we LOVE it. He doesn't fight it nearly as much as he does the bulb one.

  • I love the nosefrida! Sounds weird and gross/is awesome!! :)

    And nosefrida + saline is the bestest. Will doesn't agree, but I think so!

  • it makes me nauseated to think about it...i'm such a wimp about this one item!!  wtf is wrong with me?  I KNOW that there is actually nothing gross about it...and i caught puke in my hands the other day without batting an eye..but...

    lol!  I bet I run out and order one after his first bad cold...

  • I like it b/c unlike the bulbs, it doesn't go in their nose so it won't poke them. I think this is part of Noah's problem. He screams and screams and jerks his head so much with both though. But with the hospital bulb I have to keep doing it over and over.  And yes saline + the frida it really gets it out good. I just hate I have to practically tie him down either way.

    Seriously, there really is nothing gross about it! It seems gross, because you would think there is a risk of getting snot in your mouth - there isn't. I think it's cleaner/less gross than any other way to deal with snot.  Just my two cents. I would get it now.

  • Wait until they can hit you and say "No Momma" and scream and hit it out of your hand. I try to tell her I am just doing it to make her feel better.

    I'm sure it will only get worse, but Will is pretty strong, so usually I have to get DH to hold him down while I use it. It seems like we're torturing our baby, but we're not. I don't think. ;)

  • Ok so I am ordering one! Do I need the extra filters now, or can I wait on them?
  • I'd say you can wait on them. I bought them at the same time and it took awhile before I needed a new filter.

    It comes with a few extra filters. I think you can wait on them. (And sorry, AuburnBride, for hijacking this post!)

    Oh no worries at all! I was wondering how long the filter would last.  I saw that it had extra filters. Do you have to cut them? Haven't looked at them yet.
