C Section Congestion

I didnt know this as ive had 3 c section babies. My meant to be December 25 baby was prem but is really congested and hasnt got rid of it but my December 22 baby never was congested after birth

Hi there, mine was born mid Dec via elective CS and also remains congested. Although CS babies can be congested and mucousy in the first few weeks the mode of birth unlikely to be the cause of nasal congestion now. My baby is quite refluxy and it’s the spitting up of milk as well as the dry air (especially at night) that’s causing the congestion. I find that humidifier in the room with an essential oil helps, as does some vapour oil in a warm bowl of water near the cot.. and the nose sucker thing whenever they are bunged up

Hey!
I had an elective section mid December. My son is still so congested. Snorting all the time 🤦🏼‍♀️
My eldest who was an emergency (9 years ago). Didn’t seem half as noisy at this age.
I’ve used those calpol vapour plug ins and they seem to work but can become quite expensive 🙃 xx

My LO is still congested too. Same as you, I've asked the GP and they said it's normal. Ig bothers him in his sleep when laying flat sometimes. But saline solution doesn't do anything. Haven't been given much advice around it 🥺

My daughter still gets quite congested, she’s 3 months now and it’s not bad but it’s there. I give her the calpol saline solution before bed when she’s gets blocked nostrils and it clears her up x
