A. It's possible that your two-month-old's snoring could be due to a stuffy nose or nasal congestion. This can sometimes happen due to the small nasal passages in infants. Since you're already using saline nasal drops, here are a few additional tips to help: Use a humidifier: A cool mist humidifier in the baby's room can help keep the air moist, which may ease the congestion and make it easier for the baby to breathe. Nasal aspirator: After using saline drops, gently use a nasal aspirator or a bulb syringe to clear out any mucus from the baby's nose. Be gentle and do not insert it too deep into the nostrils. Elevate the head: While the baby sleeps, you can slightly elevate the head of the crib or bassinet (not the whole body) to help relieve nasal congestion. Always ensure the baby is sleeping safely on their back. Warm baths: A warm bath with steam can help loosen mucus and provide relief. If the snoring continues or worsens, or if the baby shows other signs like difficulty breathing, fever, or excessive fussiness, it would be best to consult with a pediatrician to rule out any underlying issues.
