Any advice
So my little one has had a cough for a while took him doctors they said it’s just a cold it went away then a week after his 8 week jabs it came bk and seems worse took him last week to the out of hours doctors and they said he was fine nothing wrong with him, this week it’s even worse and tonight he was really worked up and coughing his head off, with mucus coming out of his mouth like slime eventually calmed him down, but he wouldn’t take his last feed at all he normal has 5 6/7 oz bottles a day today he’s only had 4, he’s 11 weeks old, going to ring the doctors tomorrow and get him seen again
Attached a vid of him coughing this morning only got the end of it, but I’ve got a feeling the doctors will say he’s fine when I take him

My little girl has a similar cough and ED told me she has bronchitis and it's the season for it and she's only 12 weeks old. She caught a cold 1 week ago. So now I've been using the snot sucker, vapour bath and calpol plug ins and she's over the worst of it x
Did they give her anything to help
No they said its viral so they don't give antibiotics. I also took her to the gp the following day as she was really wheezy and they said the same. But as soon as she hit day 4/5 she improved. But still has a chesty cough x
Ya he’s had this cough for weeks but getting worse x I Carnt sleep tonight for watching him after his meltdown before it was like he was chocking x
If he's had it for a a few weeks I would take him to see the gp as he may need antibiotics x
Ya will be 3rd time seeing the doctor over it x
Following! My boy has exactly the same! Came back after his 8 week jabs, he’s nearly 14 weeks, and it’s still there, apparently just a cold?? He’s started to fully refuse bottles as well! I got him to take 2oz yesterday!😖
My daughter was the same she’s had the same cough for 6 weeks straight with 4 doctors appointments I finally got them to listen to me on the 4th appointment as they kept telling me it was viral and would settle on its own but on the 4th appointment I demanded they did something so she now has a asthma pump and she’s being referred to the paediatrician team in the hospital for a check over, I would keep taking him and demanding something is done x
Went today and they said his chest is clear but he was wheezing this morning even showed them a video, still done nothing
