Is it safe to use earmuffs on my 4-month-old baby, and if so, what type should I buy, and can I use Vicks on them for a cold?

Yes, it is safe to use noise-canceling earmuffs on your 4-month-old. Look for infant-specific earmuffs with a soft, adjustable headband designed not to put pressure on their developing skull. Regarding the cold, please do not use standard Vicks VapoRub, as ingredients like camphor and menthol can be dangerous for babies under two. Instead, you can safely comfort your baby using a cool-mist humidifier and saline nasal drops to ease congestion. If you have any concerns, your pediatrician is always there to support you.
