8 month old on day7 of a cold that's only symptom was a stuffy runny nose. this morning he has a loose wet cough. just clearing out leftover mucus?

Cough: It is not uncommon to cough for 2-3 weeks with a cold. It will not be unusual for the child to cough for that long. Things to worry about would be a fever, or difficulty breathing or breathing fast.
