A. Don't give your baby any honey before she's a year old, even if it's to treat a cough. This is because honey can, very occasionally, contain a spore of a bacterium called clostridium botulinum. This can cause a rare form of food poisoning (botulism) in babies.
Give warm soups, adding turmaric and little pepper..

A. Not right now instead try to give your baby soups right now especially sweet corn soup which is very helpful and give steam to the baby
