I would totally by this to test out if my LO was gassy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-windi#post-245116 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 13:58:08 +0000 mrbee 245116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow the reviews on Amazon are amazing. Now I kind of want one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-windi#post-245113 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 13:56:46 +0000 Mrsbells 245113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here are the instructions from the website:</p> <p>"Instructions<br /> 1.Gently massage the child’s stomach with your hand in a downward motion towards the rectum. Massage one side of the belly at a time. Repeat three times on each side.<br /> 2.Lift the child’s legs towards the head and carefully insert the catheter into the rectum (as if you were using a thermometer). Always use baby oil on the tip of the catheter to ease insertion. You will hear a “whistling” sound when the gas comes out and notice immediate relief in the child. Remove The Windi and dispose of it.<br /> 3.It should only take a few seconds after inserting The Windi to achieve the desired effect. If it does not work immediately, repeat the procedure with massage and try again. Sometimes you need to repeat several times and in this case, the same catheter can be reused.<br /> " </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-windi#post-245111 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 13:56:05 +0000 Mrsbells 245111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No you dont have to suck it out, it works in a way that releases the gas after you insert it following the instructions, I'm guessing it would be similar to using a rectal thermometer. I have been thinking of getting it since I had success with the snotsucker, but LO isnt too gassy anyway and she farts pretty freely lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-windi#post-245099 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 13:51:31 +0000 mrsjazz 245099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: You will probably use it! It works soooo well, much better than that blue bulb sucky-thingy. Even with the filter it makes me want to vomit...but it's the best at getting the boogies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-windi#post-245072 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 13:44:08 +0000 photojane 245072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha.. i registered for the nosefrida too, but i'm not sure i'll be able to use it. the thought grosses me out. i can't even imagine trying to suck farts out. oh gosh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-windi#post-245040 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 13:31:23 +0000 mrsjazz 245040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the Nosefrieda but I refused to get the Windi. It's bad enough I want to puke after sucking LO's snot out...but her farts, too?!?!?! No thank you, ma'am. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-windi#post-245036 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 13:30:11 +0000 chopsuey 245036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow! It's like a nose Frieda for the butt! Do you have to suck the farts out too? Haaaaahaha kidding :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-windi#post-245027 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 13:26:15 +0000 photojane 245027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was going through the recommended registry items on amazon. when i got to the health section i saw this little beaut:</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005IGTTIA/ref=cm_babymrf_d_i25" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005IGTTIA/ref=cm_babymrf_d_i25</a></p> <p>apparently it sucks out the farts. i know we'll do anything for our babies, but this is so amusing to me. has anyone actually used the windi?! </p>
