My nearly 4 month old boy has a really chesty cough that is making him throw up his milk whenever he coughs, should I contact my HV or the docs? I don't think they could give him anything but does he need to be checked over? No idea what to do 😕

No he just sounds really stuffy when he breathes tho, he's only sicked up a few times but it's whenever he has a big cough, I don't know how to help him 🙁@beck_yemm

When Harvey was 4 weeks he was stuffy and had a really bad chesty cough I went to the doctors and he said the chesty cough can be because he's congested he gave me drops to put up his nose to break it down and it cleared up in a few days xx I'd ring I'm sure they'll be able to give you something for it :) x it's horrible to hear them cough isn't it x

If your concerned always get him checked at the GP. They may say it's just a cough & will go over time but ways best to double check.
