Antibiotics for baby under 1

Went to see doctor and both myself and baby have had a bad cod for about 10 days. I’m worse than baby. He’s okay just coughing on and off and not eating as much. Doctor said no temp so stop giving Valois and she can hear something small on chest so given antibiotics. I’m really hesitant to give him this again ( he had when he was 6 months and now 11 months). What do you think? I’m so confused been researching do think I’ll not give until I’m sure. It’s in the fridge now and expiry date is long so I think a day or two waiting till I decide will be okay. I don’t know what to do

You really need to discuss this with the doctor.

Gosh autocorrect!
Cold not cod
Calpol not Valois

Of course I did try to discuss with doctor! She kept saying it’s fine it’s fine

I would give the antibiotics, as id hate for the cough to develop into something worse which needs hospital treatment, which i.would fear might happen if we didn't treat it straight away
