What is the best thing you can do for a baby that is coughing alot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Determine why cough: Babies can cough for many reasons, and the treatment varies based upon the cause. For starters: vaporizer, saline nose drops and suction nose, keep head up. We don't recommend cough syrups. See your doctor if these measures don't help, baby has fever, severe cough or breathing difficulty.
