That's correct. Newborns do not typically need their noses suctioned. In fact, it is not generally recommended to suction a newborn's nose unless it is absolutely necessary, as suctioning can irritate the delicate lining of the nose and interfere with a newborn's natural breathing and feeding mechanisms. If a newborn is having trouble breathing due to congestion, it is usually best to try to clear the congestion using saline drops or a humidifier, rather than suctioning the nose. However, if a newborn is having severe difficulty breathing or is not getting enough oxygen, it may be necessary to suction the nose in order to clear the airway. In this case, it is important to seek medical help immediately.
