A. Hello mom Mostly it happens because of dehydration in body. So you should try to give more water to your baby and baby is not taking sufficient water then you can start giving coconut water. Coconut water is very healthy for babies and it also helps to keep baby hydrated. So you can add it in babies regular diet plan. And also continue applying coconut oil on babies lips
