Honey: Honey studied children to be best for cough. Buckwheat honey best but hard to find. No honey children under one year. May mix equal parts lemon juice. Safe. Effective.

No good meds: There are no good cough medicines for a twomonth old. Even in older kids their use in actually making a difference in coughs is iffy at best. For an infant, use lots of humidity (stand in a steamy bathroom, etc), use a few saline drops and bulb to suck out nose if needed. Hold in a semi-sitting up position. If cough bad, see doctor - still could be infections from newborn period or influenza!
