Nothing to worry. It is a viral infection from you to baby. Put nasal drops each nostril for nose block.
Next Steps
Wear a mask and then go near the baby. Breast milk won’t carry infection from you to baby.So, no worries. Wash hands and then handle baby.
Health Tips
Occasional cough, no medications required but continuous cough that disturbs her consult doctor.
