Wow, good point Echo. I never noticed that happening to me, but I don't rinse that often any more. I'm glad you mentioned that. I will try to avoid that in future.

I love using the neti pot when I'm stopped up. It is so satisfying to watch all that snot just run out with the water! Sure wish I had given it a try years ago when I first saw one!

I am guessing that you grew up with older and younger brothers around.

I have a vision that we will figure out an easy way to ensure that children develop wide, deep, healthy and attractive jaws and then obstructive sleep apnea becomes an obscure bit of history.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ycw4uaX ... re=related

Nope, no boys, just girls. I was a bit of a Tomboy myself though.

[quote="socknitster"]wabmorgan,

Simply Saline is a life-saver for me too. The other bottled salines on the market contain a preservative that I am now allergic to. Nothing like using a product like that when you already have allergies and the tissue is inflamed--to give you yet another allergy. Benzalkonium chloride is the preservative.

I use simply saline on my son too--have since he was a baby. Nothing like power washing the boogers out of a kids nose so they can breath. Simply saline and a stack of tissues has come in handy more than once.
