Congestion.. Suggestions?

CoIvie · December 2013

Hailey's nose is stopped up. This wouldn't be a problem BUT she drains backwards like her dear mother so using the nasal aspirator doesn't help because it's in her throat. It's a problem at night when she's sleeping. She doesn't cry about it but it bothers me because you can hear her trying to clear her airway & force snot out the way

Anybody have any suggestions or home remedies on how to help get it out or loosen it up? I've used saline drops but those haven't worked.

Yes nose Frieda! And keep her at an angle when she sleeps.

I finally bought the Nose Freida and it is an awesome product. It grossed me out at first but it's totally clean. I also suggest lifting her sleeping space to a slight angle. Do you have a humidifier? These poor winter babies have to deal with cold air outside and then dry air inside. Good luck!

Another rave for Nose Frida here. Totally not gross at all, the snot never goes past the cone in the first tube for me. Never even gets near the filter. Still grosses my husband out though.
