    Your best bet with him that young is to talk to your doctor. I tried some simply stuffy for my son when he was 6 months and it works great. You need to contact your doctor to see what you can give him. Good luck.

    Simply Stuffy may work for 6 months, but for 5 WEEKS, you need to follow the advice of SingleMom. See your pediatrician.
