A. hi j avoid cold climate, cold winds. give plenty of feeds , adequate rest to the baby. indirect steam , hot water bath will also help. consult your paediatrician if baby is feeding less, excessively drowsy or if cold increases. post illness babies might be cranky , irritable. nose block congestion also result in loss of appetite, difficult sucking. try different head up feeding position. feed by spoon otherwise. Maintain hygiene. if bottle feeding, maintain sterility as its a common source of infections.

A. Hello ma’am For cold you can give indirect steam to the child and also you can put nasal drops into the nose to open the nose blockage for easy reading. For cough and other issues it would be best that you please consult your doctor for a medication because your child is too small to suggest you any other home remedy for the same
