What do you give a 1 year old baby for a cold ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lots of fluids: There is nothing specific that one can give for a cold. The aap has strongly come out against cough/cold medications under the age of 4. That being the case, you can suction the nose after using saline nose drops, keep the baby's head raised in the crib, and give a lot of fluid.
