Brief Answer:
Nothing to worry

Detailed Answer:
hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Can understand your concerns.

Fenistil drops contains dimetindene which is an antihistaminic and mainly used for cold in babies.
If by mistake you have given fenistil drops in nose, then also there will be no harm to baby.
veIn my opinion, you should not worry as you might have given some drops of fenistil each time you have given it by nose.
In my opinion, you should not worry about it unless you have given large dose of fenistil.
I hope this will help you.
Take care.
