POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy3 months agoA. If your 13-month-old baby is having sneezing and a runny nose, it's most likely due to a common cold or mild viral infection, which is quite common in young children as their immune systems are still developing.
Here’s what you can do at home to help your baby feel better:
Keep the baby hydrated – Offer breast milk, formula, or water frequently. Use saline nasal drops – A few drops in each nostril followed by gentle suction with a bulb syringe or nasal aspirator can help clear the nose. Use a humidifier – A cool mist humidifier in the room can help relieve nasal congestion. Elevate the head slightly while sleeping to ease breathing (place a rolled towel under the mattress, not directly under the baby). Avoid cold exposure – Keep your baby warm and away from cold wind or fans.
If your baby has:
Fever lasting more than 2–3 days Difficulty breathing Ear pulling or irritability (could be ear infection) Decreased feeding or lethargy
…then you should consult a pediatrician for further evaluation.
Would you like me to suggest any home remedies to soothe your baby naturally?
