Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Reflux

My 3 month old baby has had a mucousy cough for almost a week now.  I took her to her dr. yesterday and my daughter didn't have a fever, her ears and throat looked good and her breathing sounded fine to him.  He mentioned she may have reflux.

She has nearly all the symptoms from what I can tell, but her cough is super phlegmy and when she coughs, it sounds like she's going to throw up.  I'm a nervous wreck.

Her doc told me to keep an eye on it and see how it is over the next few days. He said if it's a cold, it'll pass and if not, to let him know and he can prescribe something.  So, here I am waiting and all nervous.

Do any moms have any advice?

Thank you in advance!

  • Make sure your LO is sleeping on an incline and hold them up for 20 minutes after each feed!

  • We have started elevating her mattress and thankfully, she sleeps through the night just fine.  It's during the day she's an unhappy little camper :(
