REAL moms use their mouths. To aspirate nases, that is.

Wow, 00, I made it!
Bitch, bitch, BITCH! You’d complain if you were hanged with a brand new rope. There is no pleasing some people.
Come let us go, I’ve a cask of amontillado.
OK, I’ve been through a lot in my life and seen lots of things but…

Ok, my topic title was a bit silly. But it got your attention didn’t it?
SmilingJaws: So, this nasal aspirator trick really works? I’m afraid I’ll drown though. The thought of “breathing in” a liquid is a bit disconcerting. But, next time I have a cold, I’ll try it. Thanks for the advice.

Once when I was a kid, my couisin needed to laugh while she had a mouth full of milk, so she closed her mouth to keep from spewing and it shot out her nose enstead. She was lucky though, because it got mixed with snot and just hung there.
She found that she could suck the loose end back in her mouth and it would form a sort of perpetual milk/snot flow.
(she was always smart like that)
You just have to try not to snort/laugh again, or it’ll blow it loose from the nose end.
Of course if that happens, you can just suck it back up like a big spaghetti noodle.
(some people are just born to be cool)
Probably not very useful info … it just seemed to sorta’ fit this thread.
This all sounds like the greatest sport since the enema. Is it scheduled in the Olympics yet? No doubt the soggiest thread in this forum.

Along the same lines:
Where do you go to pick your nose?
Would you pick it on a boat? Would you pick it in a mote?
Do you eat it when you pick? Or do you do the finger flick?
I have a nice mental picture of Adam now…hee hee
I never had to use a nasal aspirator on my daughter–she didn’t get her first cold until she was old enough to blow her nose. Had to use it on my son, though. He had a lot of congestion when he was born. Babies absolutely hate the snot-sucking process, but boy, do they feel better once it’s done.
I had the same reaction that Bluepny did too–I freaked when I couldn’t remember ever rinsing the thing. So I rinsed it out really, really well just now. I didn’t see anything ucky come out, so I must have rinsed it sometime. Whew.

THAT IS SO DISGUSTING!!! How could you not wash it out!?? Oh my god I’m going to puke! The first thing I did after cleaning my son’s nose was fill the sink with hot soapy water and rinse that damn thing for about 5 minutes! How could you not think of that? Man… it’s like forgetting to wipe your ass or something… nasty!!

Well of course nothing came out when you rinsed it. By now it has either dried up like concrete or dust mites are crawling in there for their midnight snack.

smilingjaws, I c&p’d this to my brother-in-law who suffers terribly from sinus infections. He told me tonight he’s been doing it for about a week now with great results - no pressure or headaches - for him, that’s close to a miracle cure. I just wanted to pass along his thanks.

Nope, no cite. My mom told me. Probably UL.
BTW; She also told me that mothers used to stick a soapy finger up a baby’s butt to relieve constipation.
Old time dads left that kind of stuff to the moms.
