 A Must For Every Mother! August 7, 2001

This neat zippered nylon case, is perfect for travel. The kit's digital thermometer can take a temperature orally, rectally, or from the underarm area, gets a reading in approximately one minute, and has an automatic shutoff function. The oral medicine syringe and medicine spoon are fairly standard in design but will definitely help make dispensing medicine easy and accurate. The nasal aspirator is a must for stuffy noses not yet trained in the intricacies of blowing; the kit also includes a nail clipper. A rattle is also included with this kit, although it is very colorful.. I feel unsafe for a small baby or toddler.
Great for on the go, or at home!!! January 9, 2002

I think that this product is well worth the money! I love the nose sucker (as we call it). It has an insertion guard so that you can't put it too far in the baby's nose. I love the nail clippers also. There is enough extra room in the case to put a bottle of infants tylenol, or advil. The only thing that I don't like is the thermometer. Mine takes FOREVER to beep. I got another one for my baby shower, also made by The First Years that has an insertion guard for taking temperature rectaly. I have this one in my kit instead. Other than that, very easy to put in a diaperbag, convienient handle on the top, and great products inside!
 Low quality items in a great package. August 11, 2002

Out of this kit, I use one item - the nail clippers. The cute little blue case is great, but - the thermometer takes two long to read the temperature. Invest instead in a Safety First High Speed Thermometer - it takles like 10 seconds to get an accurate rectal temp. The medicine thingy is too big and most medicines come with syringes or little droppers which work better. The nasal aspirator does have a strong enough suck. The big green one you get from the hospital works much better - find a way to get more of these. The rattle is cute, but I have toys that I already keep in the diaper bag. Don't buy this - buy everything separately and make a little kit yourself of good quality and necessary items for your baby on the go.
 Love the bulb syringe November 17, 2001

It is much better than the one they give you from the hospital... it has a bulge on the end that prevents you from going too deep into the baby's nose. I also really like the toy that comes with it. And the case is very organized and makes it very portable. A must have for all new parents.

I use this little zipper bag as a sort of gadget purse for baby health things. Even with everything in it I can find room for a Desitin tube, a bottle of Mylicon drops, a bottle of Baby Tylenol, Q-tips, and a little sample bottle of Eucerin cream for baby's exema. On the side is a net pocket where I keep my pediatrician's appointment cards and medicine instructions. Also, on the inside are a couple of pockets where phone numbers are kept on a provided card; I keep a pocket-sized record of baby's immunizations (that my nurse gave me) in there as well. Very handy.
