Question
My baby has been coughing dryly at night for over a week now. I took them to see a doctor a couple of days ago, and the lungs were checked and there were no issues. The throat is not inflamed, the belly is not bloated, and feeding, urination, and defecation are all normal. Now the baby also coughs one or two times occasionally during the day. What could this be?
Answer
Based on your description, the baby might be experiencing a stimulating cough due to dry air. I suggest giving your baby more water, keeping the room well-ventilated, maintaining an appropriate temperature and humidity, and using a humidifier to stabilize the indoor humidity. At the same time, avoid exposure to potential allergens. These are suggestions for the question ‘What’s causing my one-month-old baby to cough dryly at night,’ hoping they are helpful to you. Wishing you and your baby good health!
