Review on NoseFrida Saline Spray: The Ultimate Solution For Clearing Congestion & Softening Nasal Passages by Joshua Morales

This is my favorite saline mist to use with my baby, who is 8 weeks at the time of this review. Our pediatrician advised us not to use the bulb to suck a baby’s nose clear because it can dry out and damage nasal tissue. Instead, use saline to loosen the mucus then lightly massage the nostril. Then you can just wipe it clear with a tissue. Anything further back in the nasal passages will work it’s way out as the baby sneezes. She suggested saline drops, but it’s difficult for me to aim the drops into a squirming baby’s nose instead of his eye. I’ve tried the BoogieMist and Little Remedies brands also and they just don’t compare. With other brands the pressure of the spray is too strong and he aspirates, and the bottle is awkward to hold so I end up spraying my squirmy baby in the eyes. The NoseFrida Saline is great because the mist comes out finely and lightly and I don’t feel like the spray of saline is going to choke my baby. The bottle design is easy to hold and I don’t have problems with big drops getting in his eyes. Clearing my baby’s nose used to be a terrible experience that always ended in him crying and me frazzled, but with the NoseFrida Saline I can work quickly and clear his nose without upsetting him.My only complaint is that even after I prime a new bottle, I still have to prime it before each use and sometimes in between each nostril. I assume it has to do with tilting the bottle while spraying. The bottle should be designed to keep working at a horizontal angle without having to be primed so often.
