A. For a 3-month-old baby with a cold, cough, and sneezing, here are some gentle, baby-safe tips: 1. Saline Nasal Drops: Use saline nasal drops (available over the counter) to help relieve nasal congestion. Place a few drops in each nostril and gently suction with a bulb syringe if needed. 2. Keep the Air Humid: Use a humidifier in the room to keep the air moist, which can help ease congestion and coughing. 3. Elevate the Head Slightly: When supervised, you can slightly elevate your baby’s head while sleeping by placing a rolled towel under the mattress to help with congestion. Ensure it’s very gentle and safe. 4. Warm Bath: A warm bath can help soothe your baby and may help open up airways. Ensure the room is warm and draft-free. 5. Breastfeeding or Formula Feeding: Continue feeding as normal to keep her hydrated, as fluids can help thin mucus. 6. Avoid Irritants: Keep the baby away from smoke, strong smells, or dust, as these can aggravate the symptoms. For babies this young, it’s always best to consult a pediatrician, especially if symptoms persist for more than a few days, worsen, or if you notice any signs of fever or difficulty breathing.
