Stuffy nose

My girl is suffering from a stuffy nose quite often. We have used different kinds of nose aspirators, but she always screams until we are done. She is prone to ear infections, so we need to keep her as clear as possible.

Our current routine (mostly at night, when it is worst):

1) saline spray and let it set in for a minute or two

2) nose aspirator

3) wipe clean and apply zarbees chest rub if necessary

Does anyone have suggestions of ways we can clear her nose that isn’t miserable for her. She is happy right after, and is a happy baby in general, but I hate to see her cry when we clean out her nose. Other folks have just said that that’s the way it is, but I think there has to be something else out there. Thanks!
