In the first few years of a child’s life, there are many things that keep you up at night with worry and frustration. Luckily, with hydraSense, there is one less thing to worry about. When your newborn has a cold, hydraSense can help with nasal congestion and nasal cold symptoms to help baby breathe better.
How to Manage Infant Nasal Congestion with hydraSense
If you’ve been awakened to the frustrated cries of your child struggling with a stuffy nose, you understand how nasal congestion can be one of the struggles a parent faces. For children under the age of 2, it might be difficult for them to clear nasal passages on their own. Learning how to clear your baby’s nasal congestion and discomfort is an important part of becoming a parent.
Use a gentle nasal spray. In younger children under 6 months, you are limited to which medications you can use, but a gentle saline nasal spray is an appropriate solution. hydraSense® Ultra-Gentle Mist is made with 100 percent natural source sea water and is the number one nasal saline solution brand in Canada for children*.
The hydraSense® Ultra-Gentle Mist has a comfort tip that makes it easier to reach into small nostrils. This means your infant or toddler will have an easier time when you are using the spray. One less thing for them to be fussy about!
Use a nasal aspirator. A nasal aspirator is great to have around when your children are young. If you want to manage infant nasal congestion, especially in the middle of the night, it helps to have a quality nasal aspirator.
A nasal aspirator sounds like a rather odd contraption, and it even looks a little unusual, but it is a gentle method of safely removing mucus from an infant’s nasal passages. The hydraSense® Nasal Aspirator has a clear design that allows you to see how much mucus is being removed, and is easy to take apart for cleaning and storage.
Sadly, there’s no cure for the common cold but you can help keep your new baby comfortable by keeping hydraSense at arm’s reach!

Nasal congestion is the worst, especially with little ones that are too young to know how to blow. I always kept an aspirator on hand when my babies were small.
I feel horrible when my little one struggles to breathe at night because of a cold. I’ll definitely have to add hydraSense to my medicine cabinet. Anything to help!
Colds are the WORST when you have a baby! It’s like a guaranteed week without sleep every time. I think hydraSense nasal spray sounds like something I would definitely like to try.

I hated not being able to make my little ones feel better. Wish I had had this when my kids were babies.
Congestion is the worst because it would always make my boys so cranky and miserable and there wasn’t much I could do. I which I had something like this to help when they were babies!
This is really helpful for those have a new baby or new mom. My sister will need this.
Nasal congestion in infants is horrible. I remember having to suck out my daughter’s nasal congestion with my mouth late one night when we were out of the area and had no equipment with us. This sounds like a great product.
Yes! So hard to do – broke my heart when I had to do it to my boys. But these tools really work.
