6 month old with a stuffy/runny nose
my 6 month old has had a runny/stuffy nose since last Saturday. It looked like it went away a few days and it is now back.
Not sure if it is teething related. no fever. Very fussy.
We have the humidifier on in her room.
Anything else I can/should do?

You can try using some saline spray and then using the aspirator to try and get some stuff out. You can also prop up her mattress a bit so she is elevated. Definitely keep the humidifier going and continue to monitor her temperature. Hope she feels better!

Thanks!
I should have added that she is not letting me anywhere close to her nose!

Oh, I know that all too well! DD was sick the past two weeks with a cold and ear infection and DH and I basically had to wrestle her to get near her nose! The second she saw the saline she flipped!

dr told us teething for the nose thing.....
when it sounds worse we run a vaporizor which puts warm mist in the air..... and use the suctioner more
