What to do for stuffy nose?

Tara&Ryan

My DD often wakes up with a stuffy nose even with the humidifier on. What else can I do for her. I try suctioning the gunk out often, any tips?

Our pedi told us to try saline.

I 2nd the saline drops, then suction. LO will scream like banshee but they really do help.

Saline spray or drops work.  I got DD saline spray that shoots a fine mist up there, and she actually likes it.  Like pp said, make sure after you do it you suction it.  Should help.

This. We usually do it right before a feeding so that the boob will calm him down.
