I am definitely falling in love with so much baby gear but I have also seen some pretty weird stuff along the way. What are some crazy things you ladies have seen while internet shopping?
My husband posted this on my Facebook wall one day and said "What do ya think?" I laughed, because it is so ridiculous (and I know he was joking) but then I found out this is just a prank box that you can order off Amazon and put the real gift inside. So funny!
This may look ridiculous but if you have ever tried to unbutton your pants, pee, and rebutton your pants while holding a baby and then get your hands washed then you will see the awesomeness in this. Public restrooms are disgusting and stupid me went on a road trip alone once without thinking to bring a carrier or stroller in the bathroom with me. Lol
Gross? For sure. (There's a foam piece in there to prevent snot from ever leaving that chamber.) Highly effective in getting snot out? Definitely! I have one and it works wonders!
@JessicaB0627 HAHAHA! I saw this on a website with instructions on how to use it and watching a lady slurp her baby's boogies out was enough to make me not want to finish drinking my green smoothie.

I have this on my registry! Every mom I know who has one swears by it. It is supposedly way, way better than those bulbs you can buy. Many of the women who have them are converts who made fun of them but then bought them in desperation.
Also, none of then have ever gotten any in their mouths because of the foam piece that would stop it.
Snots really gross me out. Yes I know I'm pregnant and have a future of snots and vomit ahead of me and yes I know that there is no way snot would ever get in my mouth using this. That being said I'm not sure I could handle a tube going from a snotty nose directly to my mouth. I'm sure the very first time I here that gross snot-sucky sound I will indeed barf.
in related news . . . are Peepee Teepees a normal thing people do now?!

Definitely get one! There's no way to get the bulb syringes clean inside so after one use they start growing bacteria and all kinds of gross stuff. The nose frida is easy to wash and is significantly more efficient at removing snot. It's totally gross, but knowing that your kid can breath better is well worth the gross factor imo.
Seriously the nose frida is a must have from like November to April, not kidding. DS actually likes it, compared to bulb syringes that bruise their nasal passages and grow disgusting junk in them!

It's odd, but it works so, so well. When DS was really little, this was the only suction device that didn't send him into a fit. Usually in one suck & swivel per nostril, all of the crap was out of his sinuses. And it's fully washable.
Found on Amazon- This little plug helps your baby fart...
Am I a horrible person for thinking it would be hilarious if it make noise like a kazoo?
And I looked it up on Amazon (has fantastic reviews btw) and found this gem: "beware might act like a poop shoot and cannon ball poop across the room."

We got pee pee teepees for my son, but maybe he just had a forceful stream, because he would just shoot them across the room! The only thing that worked was tossing a cloth diaper over him or opening the diaper a little, then quickly closing it as it was inevitable he would pee right when he was exposed to air.
Ah the pee pee teepees...I got one for my shower...it was useless lol they both squirmed so much it didn't stay in place and I got peed on anyway. When they got older they'd grab them and try to chew on them. No no son...you were just peeing on that...lol its a cute idea, just not practical for me lol
The booger sucker thing is making me gag just looking at it. But I never had an issue with the bulb ones. Maybe I just have mad booger getting skills lol
Totally agree with all Nosefrieda lovers. It's AMAZING!!
As for the pee pee teepees, if you have a boy, you WILL get peed on. It's just a matter of time. Lol
Yep, this exactly. The wall will get peed on too-- take it into consideration when decorating a nursery or deciding where diaper changes happen. We always opened the new diaper to throw over the penis right away while we cleaned any other diaper mess. That usually worked.

@unicorn522 I have. By the time you'd get your child hung up on the stall you would probably have peed your pants. And God knows what is on the walls of those stalls. Highly doubt that's part of the cleaning regime they do in there.
