Question

My baby suddenly has reduced milk intake today. Normally, she can drink 80-100 milliliters each time, but today she’s only drinking 60 milliliters. Plus, she’s been sleeping through her afternoon nap. After nursing and waking up, she falls back asleep again. She spends almost the whole day sleeping. Today, she had three chills and two coughs. Her throat and nose feel as if they’re blocked with phlegm. When she’s lightly asleep, she makes a whistling roar with her mouth and nose. But when she’s in deep sleep, she’s very quiet.

Answer

Based on your description, it seems your baby is likely suffering from a cold. She has hiccups and coughs, and her throat and nose feel congested with phlegm, which can lead to poor mood and loss of appetite. Pay attention to monitoring her body temperature, encourage her to drink more water, and increase her diet when she’s feeling unwell. This can help her recover more quickly.
