Here are a few natural remedies that may help to decongest your baby:
1) Saline nose drops: These can help to break up mucus and soothe your baby's nasal passages.
2) Steam: Creating a steamy environment, such as by running a hot shower, can help to clear your baby's nasal passages.
3) Humidifier: Keeping the air in your baby's room moist can help to relieve congestion.
4) Nasal aspirator: Using a bulb syringe or nasal aspirator to gently suction mucus from your baby's nose can provide relief.
5) Elevated sleeping position: Keeping your baby's head elevated while sleeping can help to prevent mucus from settling in the nasal passages.
It's important to note that these remedies may not work for every baby and that it's always best to consult your pediatrician before trying any new treatments, especially for a baby under 3 months.
