A. If your baby has a cold, especially if they are very young (like a newborn or a few months old), here are some simple steps to help: Keep your baby comfortable and well-hydrated by continuing regular breastfeeding or formula feeding. Use a cool-mist humidifier in the baby’s room to moisten the air and help with congestion. Gently clear nasal congestion using a soft bulb syringe or nasal aspirator to help your baby breathe easier. Keep your baby away from smoke, strong odors, and crowded places to reduce irritation and exposure. Dress your baby lightly and avoid overheating. Monitor for any signs of trouble, like difficulty breathing, high fever, poor feeding, or excessive sleepiness, and call your pediatrician immediately if these occur. Avoid giving any over-the-counter cold medicines unless prescribed by your doctor, especially for babies under 2 years.
