Question
At 12 weeks old, my baby suddenly fell ill for no apparent reason and started feeling uncomfortable. How should I treat my baby’s cold quickly?
Answer
If your baby is sneezing and coughing, it’s likely a respiratory infection. Make sure they drink plenty of water. You can use a cold compress with a towel on the nose area and gently massage around the baby’s nose to reduce nasal mucosal swelling. Keep the air in your home always fresh and humid; avoid crowded public places. It’s unnecessary to drink water after eating; just ensure they have enough water. Don’t let any stress affect you; maintain a cheerful mood. Also, during this period, make sure to get plenty of rest and keep your diet light, avoiding greasy and spicy foods. This will be beneficial for both you and the fetus in your womb.
