Poorly baby

My little boy is 12 weeks and has developed abit of a cold through the night, he’s unsettled with a cough and sounds slightly snotty. I’ve just kept him in my bed with me to keep an eye on him but he is normally so content.
This sounds so silly but in everyone’s experience when would you take him to the doctor? I feel im quite overly cautious/anxious and seem to be at the doctors all the time only to be told it’s viral and nothing they can do.

His chest sounds clear but just seems generally unsettled .
Thanks :)

My little one developed a cold and nasty cough over night a few weeks back. We took her to the Dr just because I wanted then to check her chest and make sure lungs were clear. They are pretty good at getting you straight in when they're so little.

They will still be able to give you tips on how to help him feel a little better 😊
