Guest guest Posted March 7, 2001 Report Share Posted March 7, 2001 Hi, At 8 months the easiest thing to do is use a saline solution in his nose- will break up the yukkies- and give him some relielf so he can nurse and breath. If it's real bad you can also use a ball syringe after you use the saline.My oldest who is 14 yrs. old now had horrible allergies as a baby and was always stuffed up. ( broncial asthma until age 3) Usually -now healthy as a horse- but has a cold now. I hope Kaleb feels better. I have found with my 4 children that colds and such will resolve themselves without OTC meds. They just relieve the symptoms anyway. My sister is always upset with me as I don't use antibiotics with my littlest one 3 yrs. old. When hers are sick they go to the doc and get antibiotics- my little one always get better sooner then hers do.
