    Default Dry snotty noses

    Does anyone else have the problem at the moment with their little ones? I guess it's the cold dry air, we rarely use the heater, but my poor kiddo's noses are always chock-full of dry boogers by morning. It affects their booby time too. I use a bit of Fess in them, then attack them with cotton buds or bobby pin, they hate it but I don't know what else to do.

    Do you think a steam vapouriser in their rooms at night would make a difference?

    Yep I hear you.
    I tend to use the baby flo spray because it sprays no matter which way the bottle is. With Maya I tend just to do it whenever I think about it during the day and that has seemed to help with the over night. With Moo (5 yo) I will do his before we try and blow his nose just a couple of mins to loosen it up then get him to blow. He has said that it makes it a lot easier for him too.

    My boys are like this too.....apart from wiping their noses I leave them alone. On the rare occasions that they are really runny I use demazin!

    I used a vapouriser when Jimmy was really little and it worked a treat. Made the room smell yummy too. Unfortunately there's a problem with the battery connection, and an AC adapter was an 'optional extra' that I never bothered to buy, so I haven't used it since then.
