NoseFrida the Snotsucker Keeps Your Baby’s Nose Snot Free!
What is the most dreaded aspect of your infant getting a cold?
For me it has always been the stuffy nose. Long nights of no sleep because your little one can’t breathe.
The nasal aspirator and saline has always been a must have item, your child can’t blow their nose so someone has to help them. This is where NoseFrida the Snotsucker comes into play.
It’s a scary looking contraption and what you are about to hear will probably make you say “Ew Gross”
Just trust me for a moment and keep reading..
NoseFrida the Snotsucker was invented by a doctor in Sweden,
and works as a non invasive way to suction the snot out of your child’s nose.
How It Works
-
Place a filter inside of the Nosefrida and push the two tubes together until they snap.
-
The large tube will be placed against your child’s nostril, creating a seal.
-
Place the red mouthpiece into your mouth and suck the snot out of your child’s nose.
My Experience with NoseFrida the Snotsucker
I was introduced to NoseFrida by a couple of mom’s in one of my online mommy groups. Before then, I had never heard of this device. When I first heard about it, honestly I was grossed out. However, the testimonials that my mommy friends were giving the NoseFrida made me want to give it a try.
My children have always hated the bulb nose aspirators. They squirm, cry and squeal until the process is over. I can’t say that their experience was any better with the NoseFrida.
BUT
The difference was in how the NoseFrida worked. Instead of going up into the nose, the NoseFrida seals against the end of the child’s nose and creates a suction. When you suck in from the mouthpiece all of the snot from their nose and from their sinus cavity is cleared out into NoseFrida’s tube.
Naturally, you are going to wonder how the snot stays in the tube.
Does it go into your mouth?
In reality the tube that you are placing up to your child’s nose is huge, and the amount of snot that comes from your child’s nose will not even clear half of that tube.
If for some reason your child has a bucket full of snot in their nose, and you filled the tube up, the filter that is placed into the tubing will block all snot and bacteria from traveling through the thin tube up to your mouth.
My 18 month old hated the process, however I’ve seen many videos of much younger babies who tolerate it. This is why I think that if you start with the NoseFrida at a much younger age, they won’t be as traumatized from nose sucking as my 18 month old is.
Check out this little baby using the NoseFrida
Overall, I really think that the NoseFrida Snotsucker is an awesome item to have. Even though my 18 month old squirms, we still prefer it over the bulb aspirator as it really does clear her out. I would recommend this to all of my mommy friends, and thank my mommy friends who recommended it to me.

I have never heard of this brand, but I have seen other snotsuckers. My niece had RSV and she was congested and snotty so we had to use a snotsucker.
I have heard of this and have been wanting to try it out!
I’d heard of it before but didn’t know how it worked.
i have heard about it before, all great things, i’m planning on getting one (maybe winning it!) for my baby due in june.
I have heard of it — a friend of mine swears by it! It is now her go-to gift for expecting moms :) I haven’t purchased one because my daughter is kind of old for it, but this would be great for baby #2!!! ngiraldi at gmail dot com
No I had not heard of this product, however it looks like it works well. I have a new granddaughter expected the 23rd of this month so this would sure come in handy.
I have heard of it before but never really knew how it worked. Thanks for the review!
No, I have never heard of NoseFrida but would like to try it!

thank you
Yes, I had heard of the NoseFrida before.
I’ve heard of it and my local diaper shop highly recommended it but we didn’t have a big problem with my daughter being sick or congested. But it will probably be hepful for the new baby.
Saw this recently and I have to admit, I am intrigued.
I’ve been swooning after these for months but haven’t been able to justify the cost : /
I’ve never heard of the NoseFrida before but I’m anxious to try it!
I have heard of it before and have wanted it for some time!
Yep, I’ve heard of them before! Have yet to try it though…
I was grossed out too when I first saw this, but every mom I talk to who has one gives it raving reviews. It seems to be a must-have!
I have never heard of this before…. but my lil 2 month old guy was just sick and I had to torture him with the nasa aspirator!!! This looks like it would’ve made my life a lot easier!!
NO I have never heard of them!? Looks amazing though!
Before today I have never heard of this… I have seen similar products before…
I’ve seen it on another blog.
I’be seen a picture of it before, but I have never read the description of how it works, so I appreciate your review! The concept and design is perfect! It makes me think, “Duh!” Lol Thanks! My 10 months old can use one eight this second. Heheh
