Mel - is the Little Fess saline? Because I did try that and the BM also (got a look of complete astonishment from her for that one - like 'mum, you're putting it in the wrong place) but haven't had any luck making it come out at all. I have tried two kinds of aspirator without success. One time, she sneezed some to the front of her nostril and I never thought I'd move so fast to dig in someone's elses nose with my own fingernail
