A. 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. Or Roast the Ajwain n rock salt and take a soft muslin cloth and make a potli .. when warm apply gently on chest and back for chest congestion. increase breast feeding.
