Humidifier question

twoitalians

Is it better to run them during the day or at night? DS sounds like he's starting to get congested. A humidifier helps, right? I have one but don't want to use it all day because I myself have had asthma attacks when we used it before. Too much humidity or something.

I have a warm mist humidifier. I run it at night. If your LO is congested, I would start using saline drops and the bulb syringe. DD is congested and the nurse said to really get in there and not be a wuss. She cries every time I do it, but I would rather her cry than get progressively worse.

We run ours at night and it seems to help. Our pedi told us cool mist is better to use than warm or steamy mist.

We run ours mostly at night.

We used to use a cool mist one but those suckers are hard to clean and got really fungusy quick.  Yuck.  Now we use a warm mist one and its fairly simple to clean.

Also, the bulb syringe sucks lol.  Get a nose freida.
