Sonam PrasadMom of 2 children3 years agoA. hi dear
Babies under 6 months should only drink breast milk or formula, not water or juice. But you may offer more milk than usual for coughs or colds. It soothes sore throats and eases coughs. It may even work better for children than OTC cough medicines.
