Reflux?

My 29 weeker just got home from the NICU and is 3.5 weeks adjusted. For the last few days, including before he left the hospital he’s been extremely congested. It’s especially bad when he’s feeding from a bottle or sucking on a pacifier. We aren’t able to get anything out with suction. One of the nurses mentioned it may be reflux going up into his nasal passages and to keep him upright after feeds. we’ve been doing that and he isn’t displaying other signs of reflux, but he’s still super congested. It’s so bad he sounds like he’s choking when laying flat. He’s fine when he’s upright or during tummy time. Any thoughts or suggestions??? via /r/NICUParents https://ift.tt/8vgf4qF
