stuffy nose?

My LO sometimes sounds like he has a stuffy nose.  Especially when I lay him flat on his back in his bassinette.  He makes a pig like sound.  When I look in his nose it looks clear though and there is not mucus.  Do you guys think he has a stuffy nose or is it just baby noises?

Re: stuffy nose?

  • I call my LO "my little pug" sometimes bc of similar noises. I can't always see something obvious up there, but with saline spray and the snot sucker I can clear it out and his breathing improves. I'd give clearing a try and see if the sound goes away. Good luck!

  • Sometimes those boogers & snot are way up there - saline spray and the nose frieda are a great combo.
    Hoping this one stays put a little longer

  • Yes I agree with diery. My girl is super boogy and that is what clears her up

  • Are you breast feeding? If so squirt some milk up there and suction the snot out. Breast milk works like saline but better.

  • My LO gets more stuffy when he has some reflux. The bulb syringe does not get much out. I was thinking about trying the nose frieda.
  • Exactly what direy and Kenna said. It's scary the first time or two and they cry, but it gives her a lot of releif.
