  Honestly, I would get a second opinion. Coughs in young babies can lead to/indicate other respiratory issues.
  But having a humidifier would help.

  I would also get a second opinion, but for now I would just keep her nose wet with saline, use the humidifier, and a hot steamy bathroom.

  Ladies lo has a horrible cough. Any advice doc said just to ride it. But her cough sounds horrible. I've true eucalyptus cheat rub, humidifier, warm teanbsp;

  
  
  DS2 is in daycare and has been snotty since day one. He's had a cough from the congestion which thankfully had been effective at keeping it out of his lungs. We do everything you mentioned including spend some time in a hot steamy bathroom.
  
  If this is just some random cough that doesn't seem to have a cause and is pretty consistent then I'd check with a different pedi.

  Um, yeah I hope not!?! If baby seems sick I would get a second opinion. My LO had a slight cough, but was eating well, acting normal and was otherwise happy. I called the pedi and they said if he's acting/eating ok then just to wait it out. Trust your instincts, GL!
