A. The best defense against the common cold is commonsense precautions and frequent hand-washing. Keep your baby away from anyone who's sick. ...Wash your hands before feeding or touching your baby. ...Clean your baby's toys and pacifiers often. ...Teach everyone in the household to cough or sneeze into a tissue.
