MY new born son has blocked nose and has difficulty feeding. He is very fussy. I have tried saline drops and aspirator and also started the humidifier.

Any suggestions, thanks!

Not a lot more than that unfortunately. We tried a saline spray so it got right up there and it helped a little.

DD didn't like it at all, but that was to be expected.

Godd luck, it doesn't last for ever :)

My DS is going through the same thing...i tried the same things you did and it didnt help..the doctor put him on an anti-biotic called cefaclor and it seems to be helping..my sisters DD was put on amoxycillin(?) and she said it helped also...so i would prob. call the doctor and have him/her prescribe something

DD has same thing, we are using saline drops and humidifier. I have also put a folded up (thin) blanket under her matress so that her head is just slightly elevated and that has seemed to help also. Good luck!
