Hi all my lo nose is blocked had went to see pd to get saline drops to clear her mucus but she is not drinking a lot and always fussing when i carry her lay down.. doctor suspect she is dehydrated due to her diaper changing quantity.. she poos every 2-3 days which doctor also find it abnormal.. is there a way to help her drink more and poo more often?

Hey, Try feeding the baby slowly as because of blocked nose it might be difficult. Try after short durations
