Congestion is common in newborns, especially during the winter months...my doctor just informed me of this when I took my 4 week old in. A slight cough is fine also, but if your baby develops a fever, wheezing, or a more persistent cough, then this is more cause for concern. For the sniffles, you could try a nasal bulb, saline drops...you could also try elevating the crib on one side to help with the congestion and put a humidifier in her room. Good luck!NEwborn baby with little cough and sniffles any advice? dr. not open yet.?
little noses i use it for my son he was born c- section so he gets stuffy its 100% safe yyou can use it as much as they need it. But still go to the doctors
DEFINITELY NO MEDICATIONS...





Use a bulb from the pharmacy and suck out the mucus in the nostril.. gently please.





the room is probably dusty. remove all toys from bed and keep animals away
lungs clearing still. she was sitting in water for 9 months. saline drops if ur really bothered but should clear. doc for ur peace of mind
i would just book her an appointment with the doctor when you can just to take a look at it and make sure its not anything bad, it is common for them to get a cough and sniffles sometimes and i know that doctors dont like to medicate babies when they dont have to
