✔ Tips for Giving a Head Bath During Cold:
✅ Use lukewarm water – Avoid cold water as it may worsen the symptoms.
✅ Keep the bath short – Don't let your baby stay wet for too long.
✅ Dry the head immediately – Use a soft towel and dry the hair thoroughly.
✅ Keep the room warm – Ensure there is no direct cold air from a fan or AC.
✅ Best time: Morning or afternoon – Avoid bathing in the evening to prevent chills.
If your baby has fever or severe congestion, it's better to wait a few more days before giving a head bath.
