Alternatives to Infant Cold Medication?

Now that all infant cold medication has been pulled from the shelves, what are you giving your under 2-year-olds to relieve them from stuffy, ruuny nose and/or cough? Children's medication is still available, but I have a 9 month old with a cold and not sleeping well. Dr. wants me to bring her in, but it seems silly to do this every time she gets a runny nose. I just want to give her something to help her feel more comfortable during the night. Thanks!

The croup has cleared up and she's been on antibiotics for her ears, but the stuffy nose has not gotten much, if any, better. Its worse at night or when she lays down, making nursing her to sleep very tough. She also...

Congestion in a Baby

I am a grandmother! My stepson has a 1 month old baby girl. Things are very different now compared to when my children were babies. For example I used baby powder on all of my girls ect... That being said, I have a few questions. The little precious sounded like she was congested and her mother stated that she had taken her to the doctor twice concerning this and the doctor explained that the baby had a nasal block that was likely irritated by carpet and pets(they do not have any pets in their home), while feeding the baby she could not...
