Putting your baby in a warm (not hot) bath can have the same effect. Make the bath even more effective by adding a few drops of eucalyptus, sage or thyme oil into the bath water. The vapors from these essential oils will help open baby’s airways, allowing her to breath easier. The vapors from these oils will also sooth a sore throat.

Many remedies, even natural, aren't ok until 12 months. But homeopathy is generally safe--if the remedy doesn't work, it's inert. This is if the child is not on any other medicines or medical treatments.

Hyland's makes a number of homeopathic treatments for babies and toddlers (as well as older kids and adults). Their Sniffles n' Sneezes helps reduce the post-nasal drip that can result in coughing. They also make a Bronchial Cough formulation that helps deep coughing.
