Stuffy noses in newborns, often from viral infections, require gentle natural health approaches to ensure safe mucus clearance. Saline nasal drops thin secretions, allowing easy removal with a bulb syringe. A cool-mist humidifier maintains airway moisture, preventing mucus crusting. Slightly elevating the crib mattress aids drainage during sleep. Breast milk nasal drops reduce inflammation with natural antibodies. Avoiding irritants, like perfumes, prevents nasal irritation. These pediatric-safe methods, supported by infant respiratory care, promote comfort and breathing by gently clearing airways without harsh interventions, ensuring newborn health and parental peace of mind.
