Hi Doctor my baby is 4 months old and is completely on formula milk, he keeps making cough type noises through his throat. Sometimes i hear these sounds and sometimes there is no sound as a result i am confused whether he is having flum. I got him checked through my doctor he said that babies do make such flum type noise till the age of 6 months, is he right when he says so?
Hi...by what you quote I feel that it could be congenital airway anomaly. Congenital airway anomaly - this causes noisy breathing (both inspiratory and expiratory noise, actually inspiratory will be more than expiratory noise). But the child will not struggle to breath and there will not be fast breathing and in- Chat Doctor.  The sound will be more heard during sleeping and feeding. This may get better as the kid grows up and usually by 6 months of age. Regards -
