I finally got one. DH thinks it is gross and won't do it. I think it is much better at getting everything out then the bulb. My issue is the best way to do it. Right now DH has to hold her head and then I hold it in place. I am not sure how I will be able to do it when he is out of town again.
Any tips???

It takes a little practice, but ultimately, you will be able to hold one end slightly inside your LO's nose (and keep it there while she thrashes around!) and the other in your mouth. It took me a few tries but I got it.

My DH thinks its gross, too. I just sneak attack LO really quickly when she's propped up in the Boppy. I already have the red part in my mouth and it's over so fast she doesn't have time to get upset. She isn't mobile yet though, so not sure how much help that is...

I guess I was too enthusiastic when I did it so she prefers when DH does it. We make a game out of it and she mostly holds still long enough for him to get each nostril at least once.

I def had to practice the one arm hold... but Id usually calm him down first, place it where i needed it, then held with one hand, sucked as i used my other arm to hold ds down
