A. To treat a baby's runny nose, especially in the first few months, it's important to keep things gentle and simple. Here are some ways to help: 1. Saline Drops: Use saline nasal drops (available over-the-counter) to loosen the mucus. You can then use a bulb syringe or nasal aspirator to gently remove the mucus from your baby's nose. 2. Humidifier: A cool-mist humidifier in your baby's room can help keep the air moist, which helps to relieve congestion and keeps their nasal passages from drying out. 3. Hydration: Ensure your baby stays well-hydrated, as fluids help to thin the mucus and make it easier for them to clear it. 4. Elevate the Head: If your baby is old enough to sleep with a slight incline (with the help of a firm pillow or rolled towel), it can make it easier for them to breathe while sleeping. 5. Warm Bath: A warm bath can also help loosen mucus and soothe your baby. If the runny nose lasts more than a week, or if it's accompanied by other symptoms like fever, coughing, or difficulty breathing, it's best to consult with a pediatrician to rule out any infections.
