Treating the cold at home
Give plenty of liquids, including breast milk or formula (if your baby doesn't take breast milk). A small amount of water may be offered to your baby if they're over 6 months old. Suction out nasal mucus using saline drops and a suction bulb. Moisturize the air with a humidifier.
