DD has a cold :-(

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months

She's all stuffy, and it makes her cough because she's having trouble breathing through her nose.  I can feel under her eyes where her sinuses are that she's swollen too.  She's worse at night and kind of gets better during the day. 

 Any suggestions on what we can do to help her feel better?  She has been able to sleep a lot...which I know will help her get better faster.

    My DD is just getting over a cold. I used the nasal aspirator and Little Noses saline nose drops when she seemed stuffy and it helped. I also ran a cool mist humidifier at night. I also read about elevating the head of the mattress a little bit to help, but my LO moves around the crib too much to do that.

    I did the exact same things last week & beginning of this week for DD's cold. I recommend the mist instead of the drops-easier to use!
