More in favour of nasal blockade by mucous, but make sure she is taking feed properly .If there is difficulty in feeding or respiratory rate is more than 40 per minute, bluish discoloration of lip and tongue it's emergency to visit hospital otherwise use Nasoclear nasal drops and clean it by ear buds.

Noisy breathing is mostly due to nasal block..you can use saline nasal drops every 2 to 3hrs and also see to that the head is turned slightly to one side
