The product, in the report: Safety 1st (or first) nasal aspirator for infants. It is white with a clean nozzle. It is used to remove blockages from the nasal passages of infants which may be caused by amniotic fluid, the common cold/flu congestion or spit up. Product number from Safety first webpage is 49936
Safety first baby Aspirator. Was intended to use with my newborn baby. My baby was both by c-section so had some mucous from birth, but also had a habit of spitting up though her nose. Because babies cannot breath through there mouth as a newborn it is very very important to have an aspirator on hand at all times to ensure you can relieve your babies panic and choking when they need it.
My husband brought this product at the Navy Exchange and when the time came that my baby spit up through her nose. She started gasping for air, so my husband passed the brand new aspirator to me and I went to relieve my choking panicking baby. As I squeezed the product as you normally do with an aspirator to my shock and dismay the end came clean off! The product is useless. We had to scrabble for the other aspirator which was being used for night time upstairs. Thankfully both my husband and I are infant first aid qualified and where able to help our baby until we could relieve her breathing with the other aspirator we had been given by the hospital! I am horrified by this product and am thankful that we knew what to do and had another aspirator to use. This product should not be on shelves and I have reviewed this product in numerous places warning other parents of the hazard. Please do something about this terrible and dangerous product.
