If a baby’s cough is sporadic and there is little or no sputum, this type of cough is most likely to be caused by cold air irritation. The mucous membranes of the baby’s respiratory tract are fragile and are prone to problems when stimulated by cold air. Once the mucous membranes become congested or edematous, the baby will develop a cough.
2. Respiratory tract infections
Infection of the baby’s respiratory tract can also trigger a cough. This cough is characterized by complications, with some babies experiencing wheezing and suffocation, and some being lethargic and unable to sleep. In severe cases, it can also lead to fever.
3. Allergies
Some babies are allergic to the seasons, some are allergic to flowers or certain substances, and this allergy can also cause coughing in babies. Your baby’s cough will intensify during the allergy season or when he or she comes into contact with allergens.
