No. Honey contains spores of bacteria which can affect the immature immune system and can cause a condition called botulism in children under one year of age. However this does not impact kids above one year of age and adults. You can give indirect steam bath. If Breastfeeding u can add more garlic in ur diet which will help the baby's cold or cough and will also improve lactation. If there is any nasal congestion u can use nasal drops prescribed by ur pediatrician. You cannot do much other home remedies for babies under six months. So if the cold or cough seems to get severe it's good to consult with your pediatrician.
