Hello, as mentioned in your problem I think there is only nasal congestion with post nasal drip, hopefully there is no fever. Also you may notice that baby makes this sound only while lying down. You may please use nasal saline drops 2drops both sides 4times a day for 1 day .if you find no improvement , kindly visit your pediatrician.
