Ewww...but if it was bad enough, I would probably do it. Not that my kid would let me, but I'd at least try. It would have to be a last-ditch effort though (like, I couldn't find anything in a store).

How is that the most hygienic way to do it?! That is disgusting.

That's so disgusting.
And yet I will admit I have done it (once, in a desparate situation). And it was just as terrible as you are imagining.

My daughter has the most snotty nose right now, but I COULD NEVER do this. It makes me gag just thinking about it.

Hahaha, I'm so glad I'm not the only mom too selfish to put my daughter's snot in my mouth... ::shudder::
I suppose if it were life or death? But I doubt she ever gets a stuffy nose THAT bad
@avivoca: You are braver than I!
@septca: Oh my goodness - yay you for coming to the rescue though!! Was it a one-time experience? Haha

My mom thinks using the Nose Frida is the most disgusting thing imaginable and is shocked I will do it. Little does she know that THIS is the most disgusting thing imaginable...I need to forward her this picture haha.

Noooooo. That's awful. I struggle with the idea of the Nosefrida...but this is just AWFUL!

OMG! I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to use the nosefrida because I'm going to gag too much, I can't even image sucking the snot out with my mouth. I think I may vomit thinking about it lol!

Oh that is awful! Just thinking about the nosefrida makes me want to vomit. That is soooo gross!
honeydew / 7917 posts
Ick! Maybe this is what people used to do before the nosefrida was around?

As gross as it is if I had no other way and my lo was having a hard time breathing I would do it.

I have had some older people tell me that they did this when their kids were babies. I would puke. I used to have to take breaks during using the Nose Frida because I would get nauseous.

I love how she says she doesn't swallow it...as though the virus/germs can't infect her that way. Not something I would have even thought to do but if it works for them I guess that's what matters!

Ummmm how about a bulb snot sucker for this lady?
PS while I was waiting for this picture to load I totally thought it was going to be someone sucking out their kid's nose with a straw. So I was kind of pleasantly surprised.

Hahaha omg I've not only done this in a pinch, but posted/suggested it here on a thread to to a mama who didn't have one and was desperate!
It was seriously disgusting, but it worked!

I've seriously thought about doing this, but there's no way LO would sit there and let me do it, haha. The nose frida is the most amazing thing, though!

Ok, am I the only person on the face of the planet who uses one of those blue bulb things? It works fine.....

@Silva: I tried it but it was never quite strong enough and caused me to have to keep going at his nose, which he obviously looooved haha. I felt like with the NoseFrida I could get in and get out and get the job done
coconut / 8475 posts
@Silva: I do too. The nose Frida is disgusting to me to be honest.
GOLD / pomelo / 5737 posts
@Silva: I've tried but didn't get much out.. Now I just wipe her nose and run the humidifier... kid won't let me do any more!

Okay, I've had almost no nausea this pregnancy, but this definitely is about to make me start heaving.

My mom did that for me when I was a baby. I don't think it's that weird.
