ExpertDr Disha PatelAyurvedic Physician6 years agoA. yes you can. Steam is the first thing you should try in case of cold & cough. Inhaling steam helps to clear baby’s blocked nose and open blocked airways. It helps your baby to sleep better and speed up recovery from cold , cough & congestion. Rub Baby Vicks to bottom of your baby’s feet and chest at night, cover her feet with cotton socks. Your baby will get instant relief .Roast 2–3 big cloves of garlic & few pinches of Ajwain on tawa for just one minute. You will be able to smell powerful fumes. Let the mixture cool down and make a potli of it and keep near your child bedding. The smell of mixture will heal the cold & cough of your child.

Sneha PuruswaniMom of 2 children6 years agoA. Can give steam to the baby and also apply some baby vicks to the baby avoid putting it in the steam water. Can give indirect steam to the baby make the bathroom steamy by running hot water tap for some time and make him sit in the bathroom for 10 to 15 minutes by taking your infant in your lap.to minimize the discomfort.
