   How does a child get a cold?

   • Through the air. If a person with a cold sneezes or coughs, small amounts of the virus can go into the air. Then if your child breathes in that air, the virus will stick inside your child’s nose (nasal membrane). By direct contact. This means that your child touches an infected person. A cold is easy for children to spread.

   • Clear Out Mucus. Use an infant nasal bulb, or aspirator, to suck mucus from your baby's nose. If your child is able, have them blow their nose regularly.
   • Add Moisture. Use a saline spray to moisten the nasal passages before suctioning mucus or a saline gel to cut down on inflammation. Use a cool-mist humidifier if the air is dry.
   • Give Fluids. If your child is over 3 months, offer an electrolyte solution such as Pedialyte and increase nursing to get more fluids into your baby. Hydration helps to loosen mucus.
   • Treat Fever and Pain. You don't need to treat a fever unless it is making your child uncomfortable. If your child is older than 6 months, you can give children's-formula acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) for fever.
