My 6 month old has a lot of mucus...advice?

So my LO ( 6 months) is sick and filled with mucus! Anytime I use that horrible bulb she fights and screams. I just can’t bring myself to keep doing it due to her so miserable. What can I do to help get this mucus out. It is draining and causing her to cough so bad. Any recommendations to help my poor baby.

Once, I ran hot shower water to make the room steam. Then, I sat with my lil one.

Baby vapor rub
Humidifier
Steam up the bathroom during bath time
I use Frida boogie sucker and saline to pull mucus out but I heard doing it too much has negatives so do it 1 time in the morning and evening

I would also consult your pediatrician if you haven’t already

We gently use a baby q-tip to help with our son. It’s a lot gentler than the bulb for sure

Hi there at the pharmacy theres a syrup i purchased for mucus relief for my baby only thing that helped

Get an electric nasal decongestant. They are better than using the bulb and easier to keep clean. If you use it with a saline drop it gets more out and helps baby eat and sleep more peacefully.

Nose Frida! I swear by this! Also spray some boogie saline in and suck it out! It loosens up any gunk that’s built up.

Get a dehumidifier it will help. Vicks vapor rub on chest and back.

Get checked at Dr. ( Spell check changed)

Nose frida with saline, I swear by it!

Saline drops & an electric nasal aspirator. There’s also homeopathic mommy’s bliss daytime and night time expectorant and decongestant

Vicks vapor machine and you can get tiny cold tablets from Walmart that help too for infants

Nose Frida and dehumidifier!!

Use a humidifier. It sounds like allergies!

I would get her in to be checked but also this body wash is amazing

Nose spray. Steamed bathroom.
Only works for a little. Sick babies are just suffering really. It’s horrible
