I've got a "Summer" Cold Care Kit.

YOu get a nasal pipette, calpol, thermometer, medicine syrine and medicine spoon.
The nose thing takes practice, and I have seen a better one from Boots I think, but it's fine for what I need,

I got mine in mothercare, but you can get it in Toys R Us aswell I think.
It comes in a blue and clear plastic zippy bag...it's very useful

I was told by HV not to use a nasal aspirator or to put anything in her nose!!

She said nasal drops only or even tickling her nose to make her sneeze!!! I am not sure she ever tried to do it to a real baby, coz I have, and Maheen does not sneeze much!!! at a max, she will smile, which is nice, but not really efficient!!!!

So I am a bit stuck as well!
