Congestion at 5 weeks
My LO is five weeks and is still extremely congested and snorting at almost every breath. He occasionally has nose flaring and his hands and feet are usually always so cold.
I’ve told the midwife and the GP and they keep telling me it’s normal and to just use nose spray but I really can’t imagine how this is normal breathing.
Is anyone else experiencing the same or has any advice?

My boy is 6 weeks Wednesday and he’s got a little bit better with it, their nasal passages are just so small atm so if baby doesn’t have a temperature or a cough then yeah it’s absolutely normal x
Also have a 5 week old who is the same! I use saline nose drops every morning to help her clear. It’s worse first thing in the morning
We have similar and Gp said is normal due to nasal passages being so small x
