Re: newborn congestion??
my DS was the very same way! always always congested especially in the weeks after i gave birth! i was told it was totally normal as long as he was thriving etc. seemed not sick. it drove me crazy though! i did elevate his crib mattress as he was tightly swaddled, ran a cool mist humidifier and used saline drops. ii would say that the daily congestion actually lasted until he was about 4 months or so-MAYBE even 5 months. but i think he was more congested than most other babies.

Re: newborn congestion??
Did you have a csection? This is very common for these babies because the fluid isn't pressed out of them like in babies who have vaginal deliveries.
