Mucus / saliva baby after C -section
Hi there! My baby girl and I had an emergency c section on the 18th April, for the first 48 hours she was throwing up mucus and had lots of bubbles/Saliva in her mouth, she’s now 9 days old and settled a little but still very bubbly at the mouth and finding she’s coughing and wheezing and struggling with her saliva. Is there anything I can do to help and any idea when this will clear up?
Makes me so anxious!!🙈🙃
Hello, My baby boy was the exact same and it cleared up around day 13/14 Have you one of the wee snot suckers? Once cleaned you can also use them in their mouths to help shift some off the stuff they can’t get rid off Also make sure to not iver feed , as then the mucus doesn’t have room to stay in stomach and they end up keeping it in their mouth or struggling with it (this is what my doctor said to me when we said how much he was struggling)
