Q: a Question About 'boogers'

Hi, my name is Sue and I am new to ehealth. I think this site is fabulous and all you gals seem such good friends. When I read all the posts it seems that you all have known each other for ages.
I like that...makes me feel good, it shows that you really care about each other and your babes.

I have a sort of maybe..stupid question????
How do you deal with boogers that you can see in the nostrils of your child when they can't blow their noses by themselves??
My little one, is 3 1/2 months, he has 'big' nostril, well, not huge, but big enough so that when he is lying down facing me and I am feeding him, I can see up each nostril. I noticed tonight a little booger inside on nostril but don't know exactly how to go about getting it out???
Any suggestions???
P.S. This is my first child and I have never really been around babies too much thru my life, so everything...every thing is new.
Thanks all for any answers you can give me.

you can try to dig it out yourself or try the booger sucker thingy but if its dry it will be hard to get out unless you want to put some saline nose drops up the babies nose then use the booger sucker thingy.

You put a squirt of saline drops. I use Little Noses. Then you pump it out with a nasal aspirator. Your baby won't like it and he'll cry, but you rather him breathe right?
