Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX

Thanks for using the Ask A Doctor Service.

If your newborn baby has only cold, then there is no need to do anything right now.

It is common for children to contract viral illnesses and they will recover soon.

However, if your baby develops fever or breathing difficulty, you must immediately take her to the hospital and get her examined by a paediatrician and start treatment as advised.

I hope that answers your query.

Best wishes.
