    hi mell. it will be fluid or vernix clearing from her nasal passages, she may sneeze alot as well to try and remove it. try not to worry too much but if you are concerned phone your midwife, hope this helps.xxx

    Hi Mell

    My lo had a real bunged up nose at about 3 weeks, I used saline and that seemed to help a little so it might be worth a try.
