Clear baby nose with water.

Put two to three drops of saline water into the baby s nose with a dropper. Place the tip gently into your baby s nostril. Gently wipe around the nostrils without putting the tissue deep into the baby s nose. Rub a small amount of bath water or gently apply a wet washcloth around the nose area.

Here are four other baby stuffy nose remedies to clear the congestion. Steam up the bathroom. When they re spitting up lots of clear liquid you may think that your baby needs water to avoid dehydration. The playtime will distract from their discomfort and the warm water can help clear nasal congestion.

Clean around the nose during the bath. Turn around the baby onto his stomach to let the nose drain. This helps clear out the nose and remove any mucus under the nose. Clean the dropper after every use.

Remove the sticky stuff. When the bathroom is steamy sit in the room with baby for a bit. If your baby has congestion and mucus around or under their nose clean this area during a bath. However you shouldn t give water to babies under 6 months of age.

Collect mucus on a tissue. Wash it with soap and water after each use.
