How to Use a Bulb Syringe for Baby's Nose

Parents, there’s a reason why the NoseFrida doesn’t fit into your baby’s nostril: It’s not meant to! Inserting something like a bulb syringe deep into your baby’s nose can actually irritate the lining of their nasal passages, which are already swollen and irritated from whatever is causing their stuffy or runny nose—whether it’s a cold, the flu, RSV, or even seasonal allergies. Pro tip: Always use saline before sucking their boogers to help loosen snot and create a tight seal for suction. #paren
