Baby Sinus Rinse: 5 Steps For Safe & Effective Flushing of Mucous To Help Your Baby Breathe Better

[@lizderlingarango4348]

I watched the video to have an idea of how this nasal rinse works. I just did it to my 1 year old and it was soo good. I know the baby didn’t enjoy it but after that he felt soo much better, he’s breathing through his nose, he’s smiling and everything! ❤

[@iamrekinafong]

At first my kid cry like she was abused, but later on she realizes it helps her to breath more esp during cold or allergy season. Now I dont have to hold her, she would give me her nose, she’s 3 :) . We both have allergies, so this helps a lot.

[@LivObi_]

I do this to my toddler! Life saving method. I just did it today. She was super congested and having a tough time sleeping. Now she is sound asleep 🥰

[@Jv-mj6vu]

He’s so beautiful. Good little champ.

[@Savagepublic]

did this today, it’s super effective. Note: never ever use tap water, always use purified, boiled or saline solution.

[@teachmedoc]

yes, I agree!

[@Lotsahounds]

No, always use saline/baking soda AND distilled or bottled or boiled & cooled water.

[@traderunyu]

is water for infussion Okay?

[@elisr.9010]

Tried this today with my toddler for the first time and he didn’t mind - seems that it worked like a charm! Always used snot sucker by Nose Frida and he always loved as well but this method seems way more effective. Let’s see how the night goes

[@stevied5648]

How did that night go?

[@elisr.9010]

@ I wish I remembered! This has been a year ago and my brain has never been the same :/ sorry for not being more helpful

[@elisr.9010]

@ watching the video again I can say my son hates and never let us do this anymore. He would cry like he’s been unalived.

[@Jv-mj6vu]

My 5 month old has Covid and a sinus infection. He’s getting better but still clogged. Tomorrow we are doing this. He will feel better. Can’t wait to help him. I have been blowing the snot out of his nose through his mouth and it works, but only for some of his snot. This will be a life saver. I didn’t know I could use the bottle. I ordered nasal syringes. Hope it works the same.

[@zacharyhunter3223]

How do you blow snot thru the mouth to nose?

@@zacharyhunter3223he prolly meant inhaled the snot out the baby’s nose (I may be wrong) by My parents and grandparents even my bf does it to toddlers before. Faster and older ways 😂

[@jr.family]

Thank you for the awesome Video. I’ve been wanting to try this out with my baby.

[@teachmedoc]

You are so welcome! Hope it works for you!

[@jaylenelinoli]

Something to remember..i Thiese type of product comes with with warning..do not use if nostrils are completely blocked. ..congestion can be cleared but if the passageway is locked..we are warned not to try to use it

[@ThePupil]

Correct. i'd then just use a simple saline nose spray. Or drip some saline water in the nose with a pipette or something. You can also buy a little syringe instead of these big bottles. with older babies and little kids, you'd only need a bit of water.

[@saotul]

I've read about how certain people do it wrongly & what their side effect. I'm afraid to do it now

[@CmPunkSexyGirl22]

Where can I get this

[@lilmizchristi9041]

How long does nose stay unstuffed with thos method ive used saline drops and electric sucker but I don't think it gets all the snot out

[@esthercheyannemirdha9827]

Can I do it for my 6month old ??

[@cherw8888]

Thanks for sharing, btw how many times per day?

[@teachmedoc]

Because its saline you can do as often as needed. That being said, I would recommend doing before nap time/bedtime when they have lots of mucous so they are able to breathe better when sleeping.

[@SimoneandPat]

Omg come do this to my daughter lol I’m terrified to try

[@SereneTing]

Just make sure to keep her mouth open, she'll be fine. Do it to yourself, first, so that you'll understand how it feels. You'll be more equipped to assure her that she's safe ❤️

[@SelinaCat]

If you're terrified, she'll be terrified

[@estherrani7462]

Can we use this on 2 months baby

[@yoda55555]

My wife and I did this to my 2 and half year old. She was traumatized by it. Never again. Made my heart cry.

[@drritzy6618]

Did it to my 4 year old and she was also traumatized by it made me rethink doing it to my baby

[@Jordan-hz1wr]

I'll take a little trauma over a prolonged sinus infection any day.

[@SereneTing]

@@Jordan-hz1wr Exactly. All you need to do is reassure your kid. Let them see you do it to yourself, first. But to have them suffering with a stuffy, raw nose is awful.

[@teachmedoc]

I have been there! It IS complete torture. To everyone. BUT it is not more torture than a nose freida and it works very very well (better IMO). As they get older they realize how it makes them feel better and it wont be torture anymore. Reassure and give lots of hugs and kisses.

[@teachmedoc]

Kids in the 3-5 year old range, that have never had it done, are the hardest because they have to cooperate since they can't be held down. They either cooperate or they don't. Sorry to hear yours was so traumatized. Maybe when she is a little older.

[@expensiveworld3444]

Can I use only water?

[@stephaniehernandez8084]

Will this work for an 8 month old baby?

[@Master_TV_GB]

Sir mera baby 8 months ka hen. Iss k chest may phlegm hay kia steam lena behtee hoga ?

[@chiLaxsz26]

can i do it for my 3 month old baby? please advice asap. thank u in advance!

[@karamcqueen7063]

Hey I believe it’s only for babies 6 month and older of age. I would ask your daughter’s pediatrician for confirmation.

[@margareta.836]

Can I do to a 2month old?

[@dharnasahu2506]

Hey can i use this for my 11 month baby? Im scared to prepare saline water at home so can i buy it from a pharmacy?

[@cbpaquin]

My ORL told me 1/4 teaspoon table salt per adult bootle is good. Just no tap water with bactérie, bottled or for me i tried boiled water that i let cool. Just find a good ratio

[@ngajennienguyen342]

My baby is 5 months 1 week old & he got RHINOVIRUS. Can i do this to help? Thanks

[@coscu435]

Can you do this to a 4 month old baby?

Don't ever do that

My son is 1.5 years old can I give him Jal Neti?

[@bklynlatinacaribb17]

How can I make my own saline solution for my 1 year old daughter?

[@yolandaponce8694]

1 teaspoon of baking soda and 2 teaspoon of sea salt

[@SelinaCat]

Boil the water first, but check on a medically reviewed site to be sure

[@JFinn_601]

I’m still wondering when they gonna show the baby because that’s a whole dang toddler that at no bsby lol

[@teachmedoc]

lol thats a 10 month old baby (would do this technique only for babies 6 months and older)

[@satabdidas8182]

Hi,is it ok for 1 month infant?

[@teachmedoc]

No. I would recommend only 6 months and older unless indicated otherwise by your baby's doctor. (good question btw!)

[@tranglam6419]

I’m so scared to do this😭😭😭

[@isabellasotobruna3568]

Did you use the normal Neilmed or the kids one ?

[@teachmedoc]

I used the regular one but either is ok. (For babies/kids you only need to rinse each nostril one time. You dont need to use the entire bottle). The key is making sure that the packet you use goes with the bottle so that the solution is not too watery or too concentrated.

[@aienahmad7691]

is it sutable for 3 month baby ?

[@0_0merry]

I wotry to avoid getting the saline solution in their eyes. Its salt water, it'll sting.

[@fathimashaik463]

How months old baby

[@teachmedoc]

for babies 6 months of age and older

[@krystolmclean1164]

I used purAqua spring water mistakenly and now I’m soooo worried. Any words of encouragement anyone. I’ve been feeling so anxious for days due to realizing I should have used distilled.

[@teachmedoc]

No problem, bottled water is a safe alternative when distilled is not available!

[@samiebennett352]

I'm sure bottled water won't have any lasting effects. They get pool, bath,ect water in their noses. The most important thing is not using tap water as it has harmful bacteria it. Rest assured Mommy. It'd ok. ❤

[@miralynrosevillafuerte9545]

Hello, may i ask how many times in a day should you use this nasal rinse?

[@teachmedoc]

Because its saline, you can do it as often as needed. I would recommend before bedtime or naptime so that the sleep better because you just cleared the congestion.

[@msaadanis652]

what if saline water goes into ears ? as An Adult I once tried and went straight into my ears

[@cnote459]

Open your mouth and point the way direct to nostril while rinsing you should not be breathing but just say ahhhh softly just to confuse your brain to not panic and sent mixed signals to your body as it’s rinsing

[@aahrar]

That looks horrific, poor child. I know it gets better after but this looks like our torture not just the rinse but the way she grabbing the face and pulling the head probably injuring the neck

[@thientrang3790]

Can i do it for my 5mo baby ?

[@alyssamarie511]

I just did it with my 6 month old and it was amazing.

[@DoctorOreos]

Traumatized, yes. I did it to myself at 44 yrs old and i think I squeezed too hard...the saline blew out of my tear ducts. Painful. I went softer on myself and Its not so bad. Did this to my 17 month old daughter. She can tolerate it, but only for 2 sec. Then shell blow out the water along with the mucous. Even that small effort did a lot to help her breathing and....SLEEP.

[@Leci1877]

No thanks I'll keep using my nose Frida and save the neti pot for when he's older

[@melodyhenderson4780]

I read that doing that could cause child to keep getting ear infections

[@kataf.9977]

Jézusom !😢😱

[@christopherlegaspi7516]

What's the water to salt ratio?

[@teachmedoc]

There is a way you can make it yourself but it involves a lot more than just salt and IMO harder to get the mixture just right so that it doesn't hurt. Its best to use the packets made for sinus rinses for those reasons (doesn't have to be Neil Med, but do have to be for the correct bottle size, in this case 8 ounces). If buying the packets isn't an option, then I would google how to make your own.

[@Phethephoenix]

This is a really bad idea. It’s hard for adults to do for the first time. I would never do this to a child.

[@pamelarodriguez5217]

Is this safe for my 3 month old??

[@KanwarBrar1]

👍👍

[@BornRiders]

[@mandyditoto]

[@Loopy1995]

Never ever try this parents

[@AB-pq8jm]

Very bad example.

[@Lotsahounds]

Moms & Dads, it is cruel to blast that Neil bottle into a tiny nostril. That's too much water, too much force without knowing if it burns ( yes it can) or is going into the mouth (which happens) My daughter uses a syringe, holding the child gently. And you should not put that plastic bottle in the microwave, contrary to the Neil people.

[@Savvyrose96]

"babies face will get angry and slippery"

[@JahBreed]

Don't do this to your baby.

[@ghadah6695]

Tell me why ? Just don’t drop some words without saying why . We should know the reason why we should not do it to our own baby

[@JahBreed]

@@ghadah6695 That's some crazy ish you typed there. Do what you want with YOUR baby. If you want to pay me, I'll share the obvious reasons behind why I advise against it.

[@SereneTing]

@@JahBreed I mean, you're the one telling others what to not do with THEIR kid. You sound confused.

[@JahBreed]

@@SereneTing YOUR kid. Children aren't property. You do what you want with your kid. If you can't figure out why this is a bad idea....waterboarding a baby....God help your baby. IT S NOT WATERBOARDING A BABY! I don't give a sxxt what you do TO your baby. Don't do this. If you're going to get this bent out of shape because you feel that I am in some manner flexing Authority over you and your life by bringing attention to the obvious, I would suggest putting YOUR kids up for adoption as you are not equipped for what's coming as they grow older. How do I know that? Because you'd be easily profiled as moderately insane by anyone with a DSM-5 and this thread.

[@SereneTing]

@@JahBreed Are you schizophrenic or something? Not only are you gaslighting, but you're projecting. You're still accusing others of what you're doing. If anyone would be deemed mentally "insane", it would most certainly be you. You get so defensive over small stuff. I really do wish you well, though.
