#AskTheExpert hello doctor, my 5 month old wakes up a lot of times in the night, fussy and crying. His nose is also blocked, in which we put saline water, and suck from the nose aspirator. Not much mucus is out. Also, this exercise seems a bit difficult on the baby, as he resist it in his sleep. what shall we do, we have ordered a humidifier, will it help him in sound sleep?

A. use humidifier.. stick to the good home remedies like steaming, applying and massaging heated mustard oil to your baby's chest and back, increased breastfeeding, plenty of rest/sleep, and using nasal saline drops, use inclined bedding.
