Baby coughs at times
My baby is coughing at times during feed. Resulting in vomiting or spitting up. He is exclusively in breastfeed and is having a problem in potty. Potty is irregular and happens after 5 days or so. His stomach keeps bloating at times though we manage to burp him often. What can be the reason for cough. What medication can be given to him. He is only 3 months old now.

Looks like your baby is healthy, good he is on exclusive breast feeding. If your baby is growing well and putting on weight inspire of occasional vomiting that means probably he is over fed. Try to nurse your baby in lateral and head high position. Usually at this age they put hand in to mouth and get gag reflex, which is another cause of vomiting.
