Comments on: Review Part 1: NoseFrida Nasal Aspirator for Babies http://www.thingamababy.com/baby/2007/02/review_nosefrid.html A dad's eye view of baby and toddler stuff Sat, 20 Mar 2010 00:34:58 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Joey http://www.thingamababy.com/baby/2007/02/review_nosefrid.html/comment-page-1#comment-19782 Joey Tue, 14 Apr 2009 02:46:04 +0000 http://s54748.gridserver.com/baby/2007/02/review-part-1-nosefrida-nasal-aspirator-for-babies.html#comment-19782 I was wondering if what type of bulb you all used. The ones that you buy at the store aren't worth crap. But the ones that they give at the hospital are pretty good. I tried a similar product to the nose frieda and found it very unsatisfactory. The suction wasn't good at all. Then the baby just started playing with the tube making it ten times harder than the bulb. Just for comparison sake... I now use the Davol bulb. Does anyone have any comparison story to that type of bulb? Just interested. I was wondering if what type of bulb you all used. The ones that you buy at the store aren’t worth crap.

It's supposedly there for safety (i.e. prevent you from overdoing it) but we've found that it actually makes it *harder* for us to gauge just how hard you're sucking. Thus we use it without filter, all the better to adjust the aspiration.</p> <p>Now our only solution to the wriggly baby problem that makes it hard to use the product has been to wrap her in a towel. Barring a straitjacket, any other ideas to make the mucous removal session a little easier??</p> Just something to keep in mind re: the foam filter… It’s supposedly there for safety (i.e. prevent you from overdoing it) but we’ve found that it actually makes it *harder* for us to gauge just how hard you’re sucking.

I just wanted to get an idea as to how many filters I should order. Thanks in advanced.</p> To those that already bought the NoseFrida, do you really replace the filter after every use?

Wow do I wish I had this starting with the first one. My 2 older ones have chronic sinus infections. It is so easy to use. Much easier than the bulbs. I purchased one to try. Then bought 4 more. I bought them for baby shower gifts. Excellent product. Well worth the money. Inexpensive and works. I read the reviews on battery operated ones. They were not worth the money to purchase it.

I have used it on my one month old baby girl and aslo on my 2 year old!The results are immediate, they don't love it but they don't have time to fight it because it's so quick! Gets everything out pretty much on the first try. I would recommend ordering extra filters right away, especially if you have more than one child.... Delivery was fast which was great for me.<br /> </p> Nosefrida really works great.

We couldn't believe how much mucous came out! Our daughter didn't even have a chance to protest, it was quick and effective. Our pediatrician advised us not to use the bulb syringe, so we are happy to have found an alternative. It comes with a few filters in the package, but I would recommend ordering some extra. <br /> </p> Nosefrida arrived just a few days after I ordered it, and my wife and I used it on our 18 month old daughter the same night.
