See the doctor: Its important that your baby's pediatrician check your baby to make sure there is no pneumonia, wheezing or other problem causing this cough.

Consider neonatal hx: The baby's maternal history and early course following delivery is important to review with your Pediatrician. Check the baby's temperature and if it is 100.4 rectally or higher, please see the Emergency department. At this age, a hospital admission may be indicated. An imaging study, cultures and determining the cause of the cough can be discussed with your Pediatrician.
