Hey... If your doctor says there is no need for syrup then don't give anything. It may be a case where there is no congestion in the chest. Due to the weather, the nose may be blocked, there may be cough. You can give your baby ajwain potli(hot) to smell. It's smell clears the congestion. You can also give hot compressions( sek) karna with breast milk. Apply some on baby's chest and put warm cloth for a little while. Don't give any medicines. Your milk is building baby's immunity. Trust your doctor and your instincts.

Hi Sowmiya, First of all.. u take an advice from ur doctr.. bcoz he/she will knw better ur baby's condition.. On the other side.. giv ur baby maalish with sarson tel(add garlic & ajwain in it).. for blocked nose u can giv Nasoclear drops.. u can giv Sinarest AF/ Flucold AF syrup.. hope diz helps..
