A member asked:

I have had bronchitis for about 2 weeks and have yet to go to the doctor. i have a 5 month old daughter what should i do to keep her from getting it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Respiratory: Usually bronchitis is viral and if it has been 2 weeks already you baby probably has been exposed to it, if it were infectious. But follow general precautions, cough into a barrier, wash hands regularly. Dispose of tissues. But again it is difficult to isolate a baby from mother.
