Hi

Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum

Your baby could have contracted a viral infection. Do not worry! She will be alright, it will take atleast 3-4 days for the fever to settle down.. You can give OTC medicines such as paracetamol (for fever), saline nasal spray (to relieve the nasal block and congestion) and continue breast feeding. Tepid sponging can be continued; if the symptoms do not subside or worsens, consult a doctor.

Regards
