Below are few home remedies that are learnt from my grand parents.
1) Wet and rub Nutmeg (ஜாதிக்காய்), Gall oak (மாசிகாய்), Asafoetida (பெருங்காயம்), Harde Whole (கடுக்காய்), Dry Ginger (சுக்கு) over a rough surface in circular motion. If the baby is 1 month old then 1 circle of each herb is enough, as the baby grows the number of circle can be increased and so the quantity also. Collect the residue from the hard surface and mix that with breast milk. This can be given to new born baby every week. This medicine will protect baby from most of the physical problem like stomach pain, cold, indigestion etc.
2) Boil Country borage (Karpuravalli), Holy Basil (Tulsi) and Betel (Vetrilai) with 1 cup water till it reduces to 1/4 cup. Strain the herbs and give the water to kids. This is a great remedy for cold.
3) Crush Country borage (Karpuravalli), Holy Basil (Tulsi) and Betel (Vetrilai) leaves and collect the juice. Alternatively grind the leaves in mixie with small amount of water, strain the leave and collect the juice. Heat the tip of a knife in open flame. When it's hot, dip in the collected juice. Remove knife and make the child to drink this juice in the morning before having any food. This is a great remedy for cold. The cold mucus will be disposed either by vomiting or bowel movement.
4) If the baby is restless and refuses to sleep properly follow the below method:
Soak 1 cup of rice in 2 cups of water for 15 mins. Collect the soaked water by draining. Wash the rice twice with water and collect the washed water. Combine all the drained water and warm it. Pour this warm water over baby's body and pat him dry. Then make him sleep.
5) For diarrhea or vomiting: Boil 200 ml of water and cool it. Add 1/2 tsp sugar and 1 pinch salt to this water. Give this water to baby every 1/2 hour. This will balance the salt and water lost due to diarrhea or vomiting and soon the baby will recover to normal condition.
