In addition to environmental allergies, food or animal allergies can cause stuffed up noses. Maybe she's allergic to something at daycare? I have a friend who is so allergic to cats that she can't even sit next to someone who owns a cat without becoming a sniffiling, watery-eyed mess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-snot-that-never-ends#post-2391158 Wed, 16 Dec 2015 15:21:10 +0000 Mrs. Carrot 2391158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Since October, it seems that my poor kid is constantly snotty. Thankfully it hasn't caused fevers or any major discomfort, so I assume it's just a combo of virus and allergies and picking stuff up at daycare, but we're putting saline and snot-sucking her nose daily and it just seems to never end. I thought we were finally on the down swing of it after Thanksgiving, and then Monday she woke up completely stuffed up again. </p> <p>Have others had similar experiences? She's 2.5 and this is the first time we've seen something last this long (though it could be due to a move to a larger daycare in July). We already do all the common things - saline, steaming, humidifier if the humidity drops below 45%, and we've been giving her Zyrtec (my latest theory is allergies because it started up again as weather here in VA hit mid 70s out of nowhere). Any other ideas? </p>
