when jessica is 3 months old she can use snuffle babe, or karvol capsules.
for now you can get some saline nasal drops which you put up her nose 4x a day. this works well for evie. we also prop one end of her cot up so she's not lying flat, it helps to stop all the mucus collecting. we were also told to take her into the bathroom with the shower on and sit in the steam for 10 mins as this can clear the congestion,.
i found this www.4little1.com and bought the room vapour drops which i add to a bowl of hot water everynight and leave by the cot. its the only thing you can use from birth, it helps clear the congestion.
thats all you can do really until she is 3 months and can use other things, hope this helps!

You could always pop in and ask a pharmacist if you have one nearby, but nasosal and steam are the best remedies I've found!
seems ok in heself this morning even though she has a runny nose and sometimes sounds blocked.
