Sneezing is normal if there is dust or smell. Do wiping and cleaning with alcohol. Keep ventillation. If there is watering of nose, use nasivion drops once a day for 3 days.

Sneezing is absolutely normal in newborns. But sometimes there is nose block, you can use nasal saline drops 4-6 times a day to keep the nostrils clean.

It normal.
If the child is having fever and running nose, then it requires medication.
Continue breast feeding.
Keep the child warm.
