Hi all my DS is 5 weeks old and I've noticed at night hes very blocked up in the nose, wakes him sometimes. I use the saline drops in the morning but what to u do at night to help them?

My DS is the same. No advice sorry but interested in answers also.
What do you do with the saline during the day?

My DD was snuffly for the first few months. I just used a saline spray & suction thingy before bed & whenever she woke up overnight. Aside from that made sure room was right temp, as dust free as possible & had fresh air.
Not sure what to do if it is really bad, maybe a humidifier?
DD grew out of it by about 2 or so months I think, haven't had problems with sniffles for a while thankfully. :fingerscrossed:.

My DD has the same. As previously mentioned I use the saline drops throughout the night at each nappy change. I asked the pediatrician about it at DD's 6 week check up. He said babies have small nasal passages and you just have to wait till they grow bigger. I wasn't sure what to make of that
