My 5 week old newborn is slowly slowly developing a cold. It's making me really nervous cause he's too tiny for a cold. What can I do to get rid of it????

My baby had that this past winter. Nurse, nurse, nurse, because if he has a cold then you were presumably exposed as well and you can pass your immunity on to him. Make sure you have some sterile saline spray and a nasal aspirator to keep his nose clear. Keep his head elevated as much as possible to help him breathe easily. And, of course, consult with your pediatrician as needed.
