A. For a 1 year, 6-month-old baby suffering from cough and cold, you can try these safe and effective home remedies: Home Remedies for Cough & Cold: Warm Ajwain (Carom Seeds) Steam Dry roast ajwain (carom seeds) and tie them in a cotton cloth. Let your baby inhale the warm aroma for relief from congestion. Honey & Tulsi (Basil) Water (For babies above 1 year) Crush 2-3 tulsi leaves and mix with 1 tsp honey. Give this once or twice a day for cough relief. Turmeric Milk (Haldi Doodh) Add a pinch of turmeric to warm milk and give before bedtime. Helps soothe the throat and boost immunity. Mustard Oil Massage Warm mustard oil with garlic & ajwain and massage the baby’s chest, back, and feet before sleep. Helps open up congestion and improves breathing. Saline Nasal Drops Use saline drops to clear a blocked nose and help with breathing. Warm Soups & Fluids Offer homemade soups like dal soup, vegetable soup, or warm water with a few drops of ginger juice. Keep the Baby Hydrated Give warm water, soups, or diluted fresh fruit juice to prevent throat dryness. When to See a Doctor? If fever goes above 100.4°F or lasts more than 3 days. If cough is severe or wheezing is present. If the baby refuses to eat or seems very weak. These remedies help soothe the baby naturally, but if symptoms persist, consult a pediatrician.
