A. yes u can giv but not for cough at all it wont help. any weather change can give your baby mild cold, cough and congestion so learn some handy tips -every time antibiotics are not needed. -give nasivion or nasoclear saline drops for congestion. - give indirect steam inhalation , means steam should not go directly in baby s nose but you should put in a steamer in a closed room so that steam is in the surrounding. -If does nt get better or you feel baby has abnormal breathing sounds then see ur doc as soon as you can for auscultation n examination.
