Hello mom 
This can be because of changing whether and in such case you should first try to keep your baby normal room temperature and don’t change the temperature of surrounding frequently. Start giving warm water to your baby rather than this. You can also start using baby hug cold relief roll on, you just have to apply it on baby chest. It will give relief , otherwise you can also nebulise your baby
