A. they are respiratory secretions which is present in the narrow respiratory tract of the child. the sound of ghar... ghar.. is present when air passes over these secretions in the narrow respiratory tract. if the respiratory rate of the child is within normal limits and the child is not having any other complaints do not worry about the sound which is present due to respiratory secretions. if you feel that the child is havding some difficulty in breathing you can always give nasal saline drops in the nasal cavity whdich will wash away the mucus present in the nasal cavity as well as the respiratoryd tract. the problem improve with increasing age of the child when there is broadening of the respiratory tract

A. Hello dear parent! Maintain a good personal hygiene for your baby and make your baby wear comfortable clothing as per the season. Try giving indirect steam inhalation. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug daily massage oil for skin warmth. Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby well on demand.
