Under 1 has had a cold for 3 months

Hi - my little boy has had the cold on and off for about 3 months now, is this normal? He's 11 months and already had antibiotics for his cough in January. He looks like he's about to be rid of it and he's fine for a day or 2 and then gets the symptoms all over again. Should I be worried?

Could he have put something up his nose? Or is he allergic to something?

We've had the same. Been to the doctor as at one point she did have a throat / ear infection, but since then no markers of anything, just a lingering runny nose and cough.

Like you, it seems to start to clear then re-emerges.

Counting down to spring!

Might look into possible allergy yeah, we did move house in December and it's started since then. Me and my husband are really run down too so been getting unwell with him.

Have you got a carbon monoxide monitor installed and working? ( If you have gas).
