Please see if the stridor resolves in prone position.If you are very concerned you can see a pediatrician physically.

Ma'am,  stridor is caused by laryngomalacia, it would resolve over time by 2 yrs of age as baby grows. What you  can do is if the baby comfortable  with bottle feed, you can give expressed breast milk via bottle, keep 4-5 bottles, sterilize them properly, keep nasal saline drops with you
