Breastmilk in the Nose??

Anyone try putting drips of breastmilk up baby's stuffy nose?  Did it work?  How did you do it?

DD has a cold and I would love to help her feel better.  However, she hates when I touch her nose.  She screams and trashs when I try to aspirate her or use a tissue.  So, I don't want to bother with the BM, unless someone has had good results.

Re: Breastmilk in the Nose??

  • I have heard of this, but never tried it.  Can't quite figure out the logistics of the squirt.  I usually just do saline drops. Will be interested to hear responses because DD is really stuffy this week and i was thinking about this technique last night.

  • I squirt breast milk in Adleigh's nose when she gets stuffed up.  It works so much better than saline drops.  I've also used it when her eyes get goopy.
