A. Hi mom. as your baby is very small and just 7 days it is better that you consult with your pediatrician other than you can follow some kind of small remedies, but definitely be careful before doing it If your child is having cold and cough then you have to give steam to the baby 2 times a day. hold the baby in the bathroom by keeping the shower on also you can hold the baby on the lap and give the steam. even you can use nasal saline drops just before the feed and before the sleep which gives relief from the nasal congestion. Ajwain and garlic roasted , make a potli and keep near the head of the baby
