I use Little Noses saline drops and then follow up with the nasal aspirator/bulb syringe from the hospital. I have tried soooo many brands to keep a spare in the diaper bag and they all SUCK!! So, if you want a good one, go to a surgical supply store. Using the saline drops prior helps to loosen things up and it helps to keep DD's nose from getting irritated.

I've done the same with both kids.... The hospital aspirators are the best.
After I put the saline drops in their nose, I depress the aspirator and then close us one nostril. I put the aspirator in the open nostril and let the bulb inflate. Then repeat on the other side. It seems to be the best way to get most of the snot out if they are really congested.
we do this too
