my 10 mo old baby has a cold
shes congested, runny eyes and sneezing Crying
last night she cried the whole entire night. my husband was holding her upright to help her sleep.

pediatrician said its just a cold and to give her dimetapp

any homepathic things I can try at home?


she finally fell asleep on me but were both sitting upright...

Saline to clear up her nose. You can also run a hot shower and let her sit in the bathroom in the steam.

Like hodeez said, let her breathe in the steam from the shower and immediately after that bring her outside to breathe in the cold fresh air. Wrap her in a blanket so she doesn't get too cold, maybe also a hat (My pediatricians suggestion and it really helps)
