Hi Madam
Yiu need not panic regarding your child's problem.He might be having a nasal block with an underlying weak musculature in the airway.It is quite common in many children and disappears as they grow older and start putting good amount of weight.You can continue the nasal drops.While feeding make sure his head is up high and his nostrils are not pressed by your breast.While putting him to sleep also keep his head and chest at a higher level.Definitely your son wil get better gradually.Just keep monitoring his weight monthly to make sure feeds are adequate.I hope i've reduced your worries and will be happy to clarify any further doubts.
