Nose Frida: As a mom I can tell you the best "snot sucker" out there is the Nose Frida! Be sure to read the instructions on how to use it. You place the device just outside the nostril and suck on a tube connected to the other end to suck out the mucous. There's a filter in it and the snot can't get to you/your mouth. It works wonders for the little ones!

See pediatrician: Very young babies may have a cold or a condition called bronchiolitis. They wheeze which may sound like congestion. Use saline nose drops and suction to To help with congestion(“blowing her nose”)Cannot recommend decongestions, too young. If the baby has gagging episodes with the coughing she needs to be seen by dr.

Mgt.: The noise that you are hearing may be from the upper airway or from her airway. If she is breathing quickly, appears tired or using her chest muscles to breathe, please see acute care right away.
