Newborn baby coughing
Hello Doctor,
My 25 days old daughter has caught cough since past 3 days. She usually coughs after feeding. At times there is no coughing for even 4-5 hours but once cough starts she continuously coughs for 3-4 times and tears come out of her eyes. She doesnt have fever and weight is also normal.
Please provide some suggestions as she is very small and we are quite worried after seeing her coughing.

Greetings.
I understand your concern. Baby is still in newborn period so any caution ll seem less. I hope baby is on exclusive breastfeeding. And I would want to know details of family anyone having viral fever, breathing pattern of baby. I would like to discuss the burping habits also. Often these types of coughs are transient and could be because of some new clothing/allergen/improper burping. Since the baby is too small it might require a video consultation and commenting with this less information is highly difficult
Feel free to contact
