How long do baby colds last?

My baby is 6 months old. I want to know how long do baby colds last?

A typical cold can last anywhere from 5-10 days. Beyond 10 days, we worry that a bacterial infection may be developing, so we'd want to check the patient out in person.
Colds can last about 7-10 days.
