Nothing can really prepare you for your child's first cold. You do the best you can as a new parent and keep sick family members at bay, but there's only so much avoiding you can do. At some point your baby will be exposed to germs that will bring about their first cold.
This can be frightening for parents. Your child can't communicate how they're feeling. If they're congested, sleep becomes an issue too — babies typically don't learn to breathe through their mouths until at least a few months old. You'll need to clear out their nasal passageways, which is why you'll want the NoseFrida the Snotsucker by Fridababy ($16). Read on to see how it works.
Easy to Use
Place one end on your child's nostril, and the red rubbery end in your mouth. Then you suck.
You Don't Taste a Thing
Before you squirm in your seat, you won't taste a thing.
There's a tiny sponge-like filter inside one end of the tube that keeps anything from going into your mouth.
You Can See It Working
Because the tube is clear, you can see the snot come out of their nose. It's a visual — and tangible — cue that you're actually helping your child breathe.
Whether you're a new parent-to-be or you're shopping for a pregnant friend, the NoseFrida ($16) is definitely a must-have for families.
