POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy9 months agoA. If your 4-month-old baby has had a cold for a week, it's important to help manage their symptoms while ensuring their comfort. Since babies at this age cannot take many over-the-counter cold medications, focus on natural remedies to alleviate their discomfort. You can use saline nasal drops to clear nasal congestion and a bulb syringe or nasal aspirator to gently remove mucus from their nose. This will help them breathe more easily, especially while feeding or sleeping. Ensure the room is humidified to prevent the air from becoming too dry, which can worsen congestion. Keep your baby hydrated with breast milk or formula, as fluids help thin mucus and keep them comfortable. If the cold persists, worsens, or is accompanied by a fever, difficulty breathing, or changes in feeding or sleep patterns, it’s important to consult a pediatrician to rule out any underlying infections such as RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) or other respiratory issues that may require medical attention.
