Grunting while sleeping
Hi,
My 1 month old baby boy is grunting frequently and more in the night time from past 15-20 days. Even sneezing and not able to breath sometimes in the night. Tried taking out phlegm from his throat but I feel nothing is there. Weight is normal. Night he is feeling uncomfortable to drink milk. He is taking mothers milk but in the bottle due to some reasons. Since yesterday that gur gur sound is more and started crying. If I'm putting him on my shoulder he is little comfortable otherwise starts crying and vomiting very few drops. May I know the reason and medication for this.
