Nose breather: Babies breath through their noses and get a lot of mucus unit their noses. Use saline nose drops and the bulb syringe given to you at the hospital to reduce mucus. Regulate room temperature to 68 degrees and keep a vaporizer on.

Nasal wash: At 8 weeks the primary cause of congestion is the environment. House dust, fragrance, perfumes, detergent or cleaning products all leave scents that may not bother you but irritate a babies nose. A good nasal clean out with saline can remove much of this irritant load, but removing the offending irritants from babies life helps more in the long run.Air particle filters can also help.
