A. it s. quite normal. Common cold or flu is common when the season changes. It s  mostly a viral infection. Avoid medicines early Try home remedies like Give indirect steam inhalation to baby where just put the steamer on and let baby sit in front of it. Use otrivin paediatric nasal drops for nasal blockage relief Use nasal saline drops for dry nose For dry cough avoid medicines early.

A. Hi, give steam once in a day. Exclusively breastfeed once in every two hours and burp your baby well. While burping baby will spit a small amount of milk and mucus will also come out. Do not try to remove it forcibly by putting your hands. If there is lot of congestion and baby is having breathing issue or baby is not sleeping well then please check with the doctor and start with a medicine dosage. Take a cloth and fold it and make sure the head and back is resting on the cloth so that baby will Breath comfortably while sleeping.Write Your Answer Here
