Boogers/Congestion

A few weeks ago I noticed a rattly sound when our LO was breathing (which FREAKED me out). I asked the pediatrician and she said it was the last of the mucus/fluid working it's way out of his lungs and to do saline drops and the bulb sucker. We've had the humidifier going and have moved on from the bulb sucker to the Frida. Still boogery! I'm asking the pediatrician this week at our 8 week, but was wondering if anyone else has dealt with this.

    Nose Frieda. You suck it out through a straw essentially. There is obviously a filter. It grosses me out, and I make my husband do it, but it clears out their sinuses like no other.

    Sorry just saw you tried the Frida. Did you try standing in the bathroom with hot water going, creating a steam room, then the Frida? It shid loosen everything up so it can be sucked out. We did that after we came back from a vacation and he was stuffed up. It opened his sinuses and I think it helped.
