My six month old has a cold and it is keeping her you all night long is there something i can give to her that will help her sleep?

Nose drops: Salt water nose drops can help. They keep the nasal passages cleared she may also benefit form sleeping at a 45 degree angle to help with drainage....When we are congested laying flat can make us miserable.
