My baby is Smiling Now- I have a solution for His/her Blocked Nose

As a mom, it is truly heart-breaking to see your little one suffer from a blocked nose and discomfort. Nasal congestion does cause a negative impact on our daily lives, as it doesn’t allow a child to sleep and therefore the kids get irritable and drowsy. Not only that, our child becomes whiny. They get extremely cranky because of the discomfort caused due to nasal blockage. Children, especially infants, tend to avoid eating or breastfeeding, as they find it difficult to feed due to the nasal congestion. So it is necessary to free them from the blocked nose as quickly as possible.

I know, as a parent, I do suffer emotionally when my baby gets a nasal congestion. We also experience lack of sleep and find our patience squirming. If you are a mom of an infant or a toddler, the challenges become more difficult as children between the age group of 0-1 years are obligatory nose breathers. So when it’s blocked, they have difficulty breathing, which leads to eating and sleeping problems as well. As when sucking a bottle or nursing, your little one naturally needs to breathe through their nose. That’s why it is really important to free up their blocked nose during feeding.
