It is absolutely normal for the baby to remain awake during night hours. It is just that your normal routine is not matching with the baby's normal routine. Baby will gradually develop a proper day night rhythm till then he will remain awake. For cough and cold, put nasoclear drops in his nostrils and clean each nostril with cotton. Clear nasal passage throughout the day will ensure no cough,cold to the baby.
