Snotty Noses!

Hey my little girl has a really horrible runny nose for nearly a month now and nothing seems to clear it ... we've tried calpol nasal spray which makes it a little better but wont cure it, we've also tried karvol capsules but they make no difference ... its really effecting her feeding as she keeps coming off the breast!!
Please help!

  • @BeccaUdell are you sure it's a cold? Might be an allergy, I'm allergic to milk in the sense that I don't get stomach upsets but do get a stuffy nose and it started when I was a baby so maybe talk to your gp or hv or something. There is also something called Rhinitis that can cause cold like symptoms (have that as well), nothing major though. Might just be various colds but worth checking out. Have you tried the nose suckers (aspirators)? x
