Cough and cold while nursing
I am nursing my six weeks old baby and for the last few days I'm having a bad cough. Started with runny nose today. My throat is completely sure from too much coughing and I'm unable to sleep. Is there any medicine that is safe to use white breastfeeding? Please recommend.
