Snorting baby

[TeacupTempest]

My 10 week old has just got through a snotty cold. We had an awful night last night with her getting very distressed, snorting and seemingly finding it hard to breath freely.

There is not a great deal of snot left so not visibly bunged up but she snorts with every breath!

She is happy at the moment but still sounds like a miniature pig...

She also seems to be breathing faster than usual...maybe

How can I help her?

Raise The head of her cot
Slightly.
Put a damp Muslin or towel on radiator to dampen atmosphere in room (or take her into bathroom while you are bathing or showering as steam helps)
Use saline drops

Thanks. Can do the towel and bathroom but can't raise her cot as we cosleep.

Can you rest her head on your arm?

Probably...I shall experiment!
