Babies need more fluids when their nose is congested. Add liquids to the baby's diet. A baby with a stuffy nose may need extra fluids. Babies who are breastfed feed more often than bottle-fed babies, in which case they may need to drink more water. More fluids can help a baby fight a cold.

Do a steam bath in the bathroom for the baby, with the hot shower on. Create a steam room in the bathroom with the door closed, and the hot water tap in the shower. The steam created from the hot shower will help loosen the nasal congestion so that the baby can breathe a little easier. Keep the baby at a safe distance from the hot water.

Use essential oils to help the baby breathe better . It is necessary to have a cold air vaporizer near the place where your baby sleeps. Extra moisture in the air helps clear the nasal passages, and allows you to breathe more easily. Essential oils, such as eucalyptus or lavender can be added to the water of some vaporizers for greater effectiveness. Check the user's manual before adding anything to the water. If it is not advisable to add the oils to the vaporizer, simply put a couple of touches of the essential oils on a cotton ball. Gently hold it close to the baby's nose, without touching it, so he can breathe in the vapors.
