If you are using the fish mask, you need to take the valve off, just

like you have been doing. For the Pari Baby mask you must leave the

valve on. My husband does not believe this is scientifically

correct. He thinks that if you are using any mask, then the valve

should be off period. I checked with Pari and Tobi and they both

say Pari baby must have the valve. It is weird.

Sara,

When we use the fish mask we take the cap completely off - not just

the valve. That's what the instructions say to do. I still worry a

little that it's going too fast. It seems like she's getting it

though and rarely do I see a little puff come out of the top. Only

if one of the holes in the mask gets stopped up.

Ok this is my last post about nebs. I promise.

I think we are talking about the same thing.

The instructions call it an Inspiratory Valve Cap. I say valve. You

say Cap. All the same thing.

Ps. We tried Bubbles again tonight. Zach will turn the compressor

on, sit in his rocking chair and put the mask on his face as long as

there is not TOBI coming out. The second he breathes TOBI its all

over. At least tonight we had a short WWF match and not a long one

thanks to our good buddy Bubbles and his no cap requirement.
