A cold can be a miserable thing, especially for young babies and their parents.
Adults generally expect to succumb to four common cold viruses over the course of a year (usually during the winter months) but babies, with their immature immune systems, are far more susceptible and it's not unusual for them to suffer through as many as eight colds in their first year*. | |  | |  | |
There are numerous signs of a cold, most obviously, a runny or bunged up nose and sneezing. Your baby may also have a raised temperature, a sore throat and cough. She may find it difficult to feed and lose her appetite, her eyes may appear irritated and she may be generally out of sorts. Although unusual in adults, babies and young children often develop a mild fever (not greater than 39°C) which may make a baby restless and irritable. | |  | |  | |
You can take steps to ease her suffering. Nurofen for Children** relieves pain from cold and flu symptoms and reduces a fever for longer than paracetamol.
- It starts to work in just 15 minutes to relieve a fever and lasts for up to 8 hours
- that's up to 2 hours longer than paracetamol. - It's gentle enough to use from 3 months** and is colour and sugar-free.
- It comes with a unique easy dosing syringe which helps make giving the correct dosing simple.

- Provide plenty of fluids.
- Keep her nasal passages as clear as you can - be very gentle and keep the skin around the nose well moisturised to prevent soreness.
- Try to keep her comfortable at night, as good rest is important to a speedy recovery. If she's congested, you can try Karvol Decongestant Drops (suitable to use from 3 months).
