Hi Moms...my 1.2 month old daughter keeps falling ill very often....but I have a guilty feeling always..since I could not feed her my milk when she was a baby..I could do it only for 2 months or so...reason was since I had dried up..now she has cold once in every 15 days or a month...am I really to be blamed??

And pls suggest some home remedy for colds and coughs. mandeep replied. u need to put black cardomon at the time of boiling water.once boiled leave it for 1/2 or 1 hour be4 makeing feed etc. u can give it to your baby as a drink n can even make feeds with BBC flavored water but make sure to seive it first. mandeep replied. there is no need to feel gulity at least u manage to give BM for 2 months think about those who can' t even manage a day or those who dont want there baby on there breast. u have given a good start to your daughter so dont worry. regarding cold n cough in first year babies get avarage 8 to 9 cold. my own son is on n off with cold/cough since feb at this moment also poor little thing is choked with cold. best thing is keep them warm (if u live in cold country) give plenty of fluid to drink, try to give her luke warm water but make sure to put big black cardomon as it is very helpful in cold/cough plus speak to dr. if they agree to give her vitamine C drops etc to strenthen her immune system. hope this is any help.
