Cough remedies?

[Mila91]

Hi all,
What have you found that works best for coughs with your babies?
My little girl is 8 months old and has had a persistent cough for weeks, I’ve taken her to the doctors 3 times who have checked her chest each time and said it is clear and that it’ll clear up, that it just takes a while.
I’m finding it so difficult to shift, we’ve tried;

• humidifier in her room
• cough medicine (these really don’t do much, just glycerol based)
• snuffle babe on her chest
• vapour bubble bath
• calpol plug ins
• Nurofen/calpol

Although some of this seems to help, it has been particularly bad the last few nights where she just wakes every time she coughs, I’m absolutely shattered 😢 Any help would be amazing, thank you!

Oh and her cot is also raised up slightly at her head! x

Vicks on soles of her feet when going to bed?

I’ve been putting snuffle babe on her feet aswell as on her chest, sorry should’ve mentioned that! x

I've also read pineapple juice is good.

But maybe she's too young? Has she a pillow and is it anti dust mite and not just antibacterial.

Hmm I’m not sure if she’d be able to have pineapple juice yet?
No she doesn’t have a pillow, just in her cot in a sleepbag x

Piriton, lifesaver.

Hi @makingmiracles - there doesn’t seem to be a Piriton available for under 1 years old 🙁
