Snotty Wee Nose

[indy and lara]

Emma has got a snotty wee nose today. I have a plug in for her room but wondered if you have any good tips for sorting out a blocked nose?

Ruby has too and I took her in the shower room with me and it kind of cleared it for a while x

You can also get a saline spray (calpol make one) that is suitable from birth. I have used it the last couple of nights and it seems to have helped!

I went through this with my baby a few weeks ago. There were a few days where we got no sleep she was so stuffed up. I was given a whole bunch of suggestions to try by friends such as:
* Use saline nose drop and a nasal aspirator
* Raise the head of her bed
* Put a humidifier in her room with a handful of salt in the water
* Baby vicks rub (3months +)
* Plug in vaporizers
* Jhonsons vapor bath
* Lay her on her side

I tried all of them and nothing solved the problem but they all helped. I found the drops and aspirator the best. The baby vicks also helped a lot but it didn't last long. Hope this helps!!
