Rylee's congested.

Rylee is a little over a week old now, and has a little bit of a stuffy nose. Is there anything I can do for her? The little bulb nose thing is too big for her nose, and doesn't do anything. I was thinking about taking her in the bathroom and putting the shower on the hottest setting and sitting in the bathroom with her for a while. Do you think the steam would help her any? Or is that more for chest congestion?

Saline drops for her lil nose should help her!!

my daughter was congested a lil bit in her nose and she said it was just the rest of her lungs clearing out the muscus and stuff and it will go away not to worry about it if its not green... u could maybe do that bathroom thing if u wanted but not sure!

its not green or anything. i was just a little worried about her breathing well at night when shes sleeping.

yea u cld do saline drops.. put a squirt in there leave in a min or 2 and then use the bulb thingy to clean it out!

Make sure your boyfriend gets the saline drops, and not the medicated drops.

Steaming will help, if you dont have a cold steam humidifer(sp) that will help as well.

Hayden was like that, and I was getting worried for the same reason, Then he started sneezing like CRAZY & is helped alot haha. I udnno how to make her sneeze though, so those saline drops will probably be your best bet!
