Hi there

My 4 month old is very congested at night (back of the nose rather than runny nose!).

Have tried all of the following but it keeps waking him up:

  • vicks humidifier
  • Sterimar
  • Aspirator (the one you suck on!)
  • kids olbas and snufflebabe oil in hot water by crib and on tissue
  • snufflebabe vapour rub on chest
  • slightly elevating crib
  • standing in bathroom with shower on for steam

The GP says he will grow out of it, but I'm worried if there is anything else I could try to make it easier for him?!

Thanks
