this is one of the very common problem that arises and should not worry for the same.
nose block in babies frequently interferes with feeding. what i suggest is to give nasal saline drops whenever you feel the nose is blocked (completely safe!)
also u can give decongestive drops(according to the wt) if u feel the problem is severe.
do take care that the baby does not aspirate milk.
to prevent that from happening, keep the baby upright over the mothers shoulder and burp the baby,
there is nothing much to worry :)
