Nasal care for babies is particularly important, especially in the first months when airway passages are narrow. If your baby's nose is clogged or has visible mucus, first instill a few drops of sterile saline solution (from a pharmacy), wait a minute, then gently remove mucus with a nasal aspirator (rubber bulb or mouth-operated tube model). Use a separate clean tip for each nostril. Never use cotton swabs—they can damage mucous membranes and push mucus deeper. Keeping room air humid (with a humidifier or steam) also reduces nighttime congestion. Don't aspirate more than 2-3 times daily, or nasal tissue becomes irritated. If your baby has trouble breathing, is turning blue, or has fever, see your doctor right away.
