My 4 month old son has a really bad cough. He can’t stop coughing and has coughed so hard he’s thrown up. He’s also very congested. I know pretty much everything is off the market for babies to help with colds. I’ve tried steam in the bathroom and a waterless vaporizer. Any other suggestions? The poor little guy sounds so bad.
To give a little background info, my son started getting the cough on Monday. On Tues was his 4mth appt and vaccinations. The doc said he was fine to get the vacs. He got them and by the end of the night he had a fever. I gave him baby tylenol and he got to sleep. He still had the fever in the morning and I gave him more tylenol and the fever broke. I called the doctor to ensure I was doing what I was supposed to be doing, but didn’t actually get to talk to anyone till yesterday. His temp is normal and I’ve been taking it frequently. The docs office basically said to keep doing what I was doing…I was just hoping to get any other recommendations to help alleviate my baby’s discomfort. Thanks for all the helpful answers.
