A. Steam is the first thing you should try in case of cold & cough. Inhaling steam helps to clear baby’s blocked nose and open blocked airways. It helps your baby to sleep better and speed up recovery from cold , cough & congestion. Rub Baby Vicks to bottom of your baby’s feet and chest at night, cover her feet with cotton socks. Your baby will get instant relief .Roast the Ajwain n rock salt and take a soft muslin cloth and make a potli .. when warm apply gently on chest and back for chest congestion.

A. Purée it is absolutely fine and the textured food should be introduced after the age of eight to nine months H I’ll be fine with a fine purée first and then you introduce textured food and for nasal blockage you can use nasal drops every time when it is required five to six times in a day and make your child sleep on a mustard pillow
