There are certain things you never imagine you would do or even could do. Then you become a parent and everything changes. You clean up pee, poo, spit up and even suck snot out of your baby’s nose!? WHAT? Suck snot out of your baby’s nose? YES.
I’ve had this conversation a few times with friends and family that have no kids and they always say “I’ll never do that!”. We all thought we would NEVER do this but when your baby is sick and crying and stuffed up…you would do anything!
On baby number 3 you pick up tricks from great doctors, family and fellow mamas! This is one of my favourites. Instead of struggling and risking hurting your little one try this technique when clearing your baby’s nose. The products that I use and love are all made by Hydrasense. The full kit is great and you can get the Hydrasense single dose saline as well. Please remember this technique is to be used when baby is sick. Overuse of nasal suction can lead to dryness.
Watch the Video for the technique and Happy Nose Sucking! Let me know if you have any other great tips!
And don’t forget I am not a doctor/professional. Just a mom with hands-on experience and lots of tips from other moms. Always consult a doctor first.
ps- No babies were hurt in the making of this video! I promise this doesn’t hurt the baby!
