A. it may be due to nasal block use Nasoclear saline drops just clear the nasal block. It doesn't help in decreasing nasal congestion. But if nasal congestion is minimal then better to avoid to give nasal drops in first 3months of age. If significant nasal congestion night awakening exessive cry due to nasal congestion then give Nasivion baby nasal drops 1drop in each nostril 4 times a day for 2 days only. It will help

A. Researchers explain that mouth breathing during sleep may develop in response to some type of blockage in the upper airway, like the nose or throat. This could be from something fairly harmless on its own, like a stuffy nose with a cold or from allergies. Or it could be from other, more complex conditions.
