Why does my 4 month old cough so much?

I was just going to tell you my thoughts were probably asthma too. hmmm probably nothing to scurry off to to the doc about , but I would get him checked next time you go in more sooner than later. they will probably have you do a some breathing treatments with him on a scheduled basis. or who knows. maybe get him in, its better safe than sorry. my sister went to ck on her little 6 mnts old when he was sleeping and he was blue and lathargic from lack of oxygen. they flew him by helecoper to a larger hospital about 100 miles from where we currently live and found out it was asthsma. of course this was a severe case and he has out grown it now, but just to be on the safe side;) sorry, didn’t mean to scare ya, just taking the proper precautions. ya-know” like I said, everyone is different, it could be simple, but hen it comes to children, I wouldn’t take any chances. he is your little sweetpea:)

switch doctors. there is no such thing as a stupid question coming from a new mom (or anyone really) you should never pay someone to take care of your child that you don’t trust. switch, it’ll be worth it.

My baby went through that. Her pediatrician said even though she’s not stuffy, she could have fluids running down her throat, making her cough. Babies can show signs of allergies as early as 2 months. My kiddo takes Zyrtec (which is safe for babies in the right dose) now, and she is a different kid. My neighbor’s baby girl does this fake cough all the time… It might just be a new sound he’s experimenting with. I wouldn’t worry to much about it, unless it disturbs his eating or sleeping.

I’m on medicaid so I don’t pay him anyway - that’s why it’s SO hard to switch doctors.. PLUS I have to find one who will accept medicaid! It’s so complicated !

Ohs wow that is long… why havent you taking him to the doctors they will check his lungs and see if he has it or not… I think he might sounds like it then… anyone smoke in the house? OOO maybe he has allergies??? I would just check with the doctor as soon as possible.

No I don’t think it’s a cold because it’s been like this for about 2 months && well a cold doesn’t last that long soo that’s not possible… && well asthma is in my family (not too much, but it’s there) I just don’t know if babies can even “HAVE” it you know… It makes me so nervous he’s so tiny & I don’t want him to have to be on any medication!

Umm… yeah he might have asthma I think some people are born with it sometimes… I would check with the doctor he might be getting a cold… some colds can just come with the coughs…

I smoke but not ANYWHERE near him.. EVER! I took him to the doctor 2 weeks ago for his 4 month shot && the doctor was like “Oh it’s nothing to worry about” .. but I don’t exactly trust him really. I mean I’m seriously considering switching peditricians because he always has some smart as comment about everything I ask - I don’t know if I ask “too” many questions or what but I mean I’m a parent, ya know I SHOULD be concerned about every little thing, especially this – it’s really the only thing that just alarms me that something could possibly be wrong, but it’s SO hard to switch doctors around here I have to like go through a LONG as process with the insurance company & what not!

He could have asthma I have asthma and sometimes those things happen to me

SHE HAS BEEN SMOKEING TO MUCHH.. WATCH HER ACTIONS.
