After a baby falls ill, besides their own discomfort, the most difficult thing is for their parents. Every parent wants to take their place in getting sick. Especially for babies with nasal congestion after catching a cold, it is difficult for them to sleep at all. Nasal congestion also troubles mothers who cannot find a good way to make their babies sleep comfortably. So, let's learn about what to do if a baby with nasal congestion cannot sleep?
1. Babies with nasal congestion need to pay attention to cleaning the inside of their nose every day. Drop a small drop of fragrant oil into their nose, and once the nasal discharge becomes moist, it may flow out. Alternatively, cleaning with a cotton swab can alleviate nasal congestion. Maintain moderate indoor humidity so that the inside of the nose does not feel dry and cause special pain.
2. Indoor pure water humidifiers can bring the nose closer to the air, and inhaling some moist air every day can relieve nasal congestion. If you can switch your body while sleeping, it will change the two blocked noses and make them more unobstructed. If it's really not possible, you need to let the baby do it for a while, and the nasal congestion can be relieved.
3. Apply a hot compress to the baby's nose before they go to bed every day to alleviate the symptoms of nasal congestion. When sleeping, apply a towel to the nose and heat it up again after it cools down. Repeat this process several times to relieve nasal congestion. This will dilute the viscous mucus and turn it into a watery stream, reducing nasal congestion.
