Is it okay to use a Vicks Warm Mist Humidifier for my newborn?

I have always used cool mist

@braindeadmama, Oh, but would it be detrimental to my newborn if I used the warm mist? Thanks.

I’m not really sure honestly. Does she have a stuffed nose?

If she's stuffed up try steaming up the bath room and letting her sit in there for a while. That's what I did when mine were that small

@km416, yeah my sister already bought it :( I’ve been searching online and almost everyone uses cool mist

I’d check with baby’s ped (:

You can use either. Warm isn’t recommended for children because it has a heating mechanism inside that can burn them if they get it.

Just follow the directions. Mine says to keep it 6 inches from the wall and 4 feet from the bed.
