Baby Is Stuffy, Can't Get Her To Eat

[sahm2three]

I have ****ed her nose out, tried feeding her almost sitting up, cannot get her to latch on because she can't breath. I tried a syringe, and no luck. She is FLIPPING out. I got about 1/2 oz in her in an hour and a half! I just had to put her down and take a breather. Thank goodness the boys have been well behaved today, because she is taking a LOT of my time. I feel awful for her, I know she doesn't feel the greatest. She is almost 4 months, so she is little and can't take cold meds. What have you guys done in this situation?

Saline drops!!! The babies HATE them, but you drip the saline up the nose, let it "marinate" for a couple minutes, then **** the snot out. The saline loosens the snot and makes the snot ****er much more effective.

The "Little Remedies" brand is what I use. I like that brand of stuff.
