Baby got sick, he has a cold. So that your child finds his comfort and his health, baby can be looked after thanks to the use of an essential tool, the baby nose, which exists in several models: manual baby nose, pear baby nose or even the fly – electronic baby.
A nasal aspirator, what is it?
The baby nasal aspirator is made up of several elements, including a main plastic tip which is placed in the baby's nostrils and another manual or electric part which serves as a box to suck the nasal mucus. The use of the small device is simple, you must manually aspirate the secretions with the mouth if you use a manual baby nasal aspirator or by pressing on the box, to empty it of its air, if it is a fly baby pear. If you have an electric baby nasal aspirator, just press the on / off button to remove nasal mucus.
The principle of the baby nose is to allow baby to blow his nose with the help of an adult, being unable to blow his nose alone. The nasal aspirator gently cleans your baby's nose to help him breathe better. This small device with its plastic tip, allows access to baby's nostrils and manually or electrically aspirate nasal mucus. In terms of hygiene, the accessory allows dust, pollution and pathogens to be removed and is easily washed for reuse.
So that the nasal aspirator is effective, he must inhale quickly and blow his nose a lot of nasal secretions so that the baby quickly regains normal breathing. But children are fragile, so the suction power shouldn't hurt them. The accessory can be used from 6 months but there is no maximum age of use. Cleaning of the nasal aspirator should be regular to prevent bacteria from proliferating and contaminating the parents.
Clean the baby's nose with physiological serum
Before using the nasal aspirator, you can clean baby's nose with physiological saline and cotton wool, being careful not to hurt the sides of the serum pod.
To do this, lay baby on the changing table where you usually wash him and place his head on the side. Then perform nasopharyngeal drainage using a rolled up cotton ball soaked in physiological saline. The goal of this treatment is to thin the nasal secretions to facilitate the evacuation of the baby nose device.
You can also fluidize with a nasal spray suitable for baby, such as the one from the Physiomer range

Once the baby's little nose is ready, evacuate the secretions with the baby nose device. Baby still lying on the table. Take it easy, tell them and tell them what you're going to do. Tell her it will do her good and help her breathe.
The vast majority of babies don't like it and cry. This is no reason to stop sucking up nasal mucus. Keep in mind that even if it is not pleasant for him or for you, you are doing it for his good and for his health. Hold on, this is the distance that baby will be healed and will get used to the nasal aspirator.
Which nasal aspirator should I choose for my baby?
Pear baby nose
To remove nasal secretions using the baby nasal aspirator, aspiration can be done with a pear baby nozzle, an accessory whose tip is placed in the baby's nose for aspiration of nasal mucus.
Hold baby's arm with one hand and with the other, pour the serum into the nostril. Manually aspirate the flow through the nozzle placed in the nose by pressing on the bulb to empty it of its air. Then repeat the operation with the other nostril. The only noticeable problem with this nasal aspirator is that there is no suction power.
Clean the tip and bulb well after use.

Oral or manual nasal aspirator
For the oral baby nasal aspirator, the use is done manually using a hose that sucks up the nasal mucus. To do this, insert the tip into baby's nostril, put the tube in your mouth and breathe gently. This practice sometimes meets detractors because some parents believe that it can hurt the baby, if the suction is too strong.
The transmission of microbes remains more uncertain but rest assured, the flow of secretion does not reach your mouth, it is stored in a small room provided for this purpose.
Be sure to perform thorough cleaning after use.
