POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy7 months agoA. You can monitor your baby’s recovery from cold and cough by observing these signs:
✅ Signs of Improvement
1️⃣ Reduced Sneezing & Runny Nose – If your baby is sneezing less and the nasal discharge decreases, it's a good sign.
2️⃣ Less Coughing – The intensity and frequency of cough should reduce gradually.
3️⃣ Easier Breathing – If your baby is no longer breathing fast or struggling to breathe, they are improving.
4️⃣ Better Sleep – A sick baby often wakes up frequently; if your baby starts sleeping well, it's a good sign.
5️⃣ More Active & Playful – If your baby is active and responding normally, it means they are feeling better.
6️⃣ Normal Appetite – If your baby is feeding well without discomfort, the congestion is clearing up.
🚨 When to Consult a Doctor?
❌ If cough lasts more than 10 days
❌ High fever (above 100.4°F) that doesn’t reduce
❌ Fast or noisy breathing (wheezing or grunting)
❌ If baby refuses to eat or drink
❌ If lips or skin turn bluish (sign of low oxygen)
Keep giving fluids, warm compress on the chest, and continue medication as prescribed. Let me know if you need more help! 💕
