    Thanks to your replies got the sucker to work, first 10 times it was frustrating cos he kept squirming but then I discovered if I sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star whilst doing it, he smiles and stays still
    Whatever works!

    Also today he has lost his voice ! Plus for me because it's keeping my life nice and peaceful but the poor guy must have a very sore throat obviously I can't give him any throat lozenges !!! Any ideas though?

    Not sure about the sore throat, maybe sucking on a frozen teething ring? Nice and cold going down his throat.

    I also find with the blocked nose that I give dd a bath right before her bedtime bottle and I put eucalyptus oil in the water (just a few drops) she breaths it in with the steam from her bath and it also coats her skin and hair a little so she breathes it in all night.

    A little tip when using the bulb.. block the other nostril when sucking the snot out of the other.
