Baby Chest Rub Potli for Winter Care: Comfort for Your Little One

It is 2am and your baby has a cold congested nose meaning they can’t breathe properly. They wake up crying, unable to eat properly and won’t settle. You cuddle them and take them around the room hoping you could do something to help.
If this sounds familiar then you are not alone. Many homes with small babies suffer from colds and congestion during the colder months. However, you don’t always need harsh remedies. Many families will use a warm herbal potli.
This is an ancient remedy used in the home. A Baby Chest Rub Potli provides this remedy in a ready to use form specifically for babies. With correct use, can provide a Baby Rub For Cold And Cough to help your little one feel more comfortable.
Why Babies Catch Cold So Easily in Winter

Babies have growing bodies which means they aren’t able to fight off germs as well as adults. During winter the air tends to be dryer and colder meaning many babies will have a cold or cough.
Why a Baby's Nose Gets Blocked So Fast
Babies have very small nasal passages meaning they can get blocked easily. As young babies mainly breathe through their nose they can’t blow their nose meaning the mucus builds up causing noise while they breathe.

The cold does not go away in a few days
