Cooper has a chesty cough, he's quite happy other than that, but was just wondering what everyone did about this?
I've been spraying Colloidal silver down his throat.
Alia never got anything like so this is new.

i would stop with the silver and take him to a doctor. i'm sure it was one of emmas kids that had a chesty cough and nothing else and it turned out to be something that could have been severe.

Haven't seen the Dr yet but spoke to the nurse & she said it sounds like juvenile asthma. Going to Dr on friday as we are hoping the cough will clear so he can have his jabs as well.
In the meantime I've gone off dairy in case that is what is causing it.

Kaelins got bronciolitis (sp?) and has got a nasty chesty cough. Didnt know about the dairy though, might cut it out and see if that makes a difference because shes not getting better. Good luck at the Drs

Sometimes a baby cough settles into broncholitis, Kryssi had it a lot as a baby but she's fit as a fiddle these days. At 5mos you can't do a lot but steam and baby balsam (baby vicks) are nice anyway.
