    Coughing is a defensive response to expel phlegm and foreign bodies from the throat. Therefore, when the baby coughs, it is necessary to distinguish the cause of the cough first, rather than blindly asking for cough suppression.

    If the baby coughs with phlegm, feed the baby warm water in small amounts and many times, which is to moisten the throat, dilute the phlegm, and help to expel phlegm.

    It will be more comfortable to raise the baby's upper body appropriately when sleeping.

    When the baby coughs non-stop, you can hold the baby vertically and gently pat the baby's back to help expel phlegm.

    To avoid excessive dryness indoors, use a humidifier to maintain indoor humidity and make the environment comfortable.

    If the baby coughs non-stop, or is accompanied by fever, runny nose, diarrhea, vomiting, dyspnea, listlessness and other symptoms, it is recommended that parents take the baby to seek medical attention in time**.
