There is releif available for a baby's blocked nose!!

I was recently involved in hosting an Otrivin Party through vibe village and was bewildered by how many mothers don't know about nasal aspirators. (the rubber bulb thing you use to suck the snot out of your babies nose)

I got one as part of a baby care kit, but find that the ones with the plastic tips on the end like you get with the saline drops are heaps gentler on the nose.

90% of the time though if you use the saline drops and are quick with a tissue you dont even need to use one !

I know about nasal aspirators, but was warned by numerous doctors when DS was born and sick to try not to use them, and if I do be very careful, as many parents who use them use them incorrectly apparently!

Many doctors arent great fans of these devices, just recommend the saline drops only!
