As you are telling that she had runny nose and also mother having the same, most likely it's viral upper respiratory tract infection. As there is no fever and baby is feeding well, it's good sign. Continue with nasal saline drops frequently, you can give even at every 1 hour. Watch for breathing pattern of baby if you think it's labored or very fast need to get to hospital.
