Not pregnancy related but just wanted advice my 11 day old has caught a cold and has a chesty cough,  her temp isn't high and she is eating maybe a little less than usual tho just wondering with her only being 11 days and the cough being chesty should I ring a doctor? ?

I change her every 2-3 hours and its always wet so 8-10. She was very sleepy this afternoon an not eating much but now she's on her 3rd feed in 2 hours ( I bf) ive checked her temp regularly and Its not high she's only coughed a couple of times in hours keeping a very close eye on her

For an infant 100.4° or higher is considered a high temperature instead of 103°. I would just call to be on the safe side, especially since she's eating a little less. The doc might worry about dehydration. How many wet diapers is she having in a 24 period right now?

Call your doc because RSV is going around right now. My niece just spent three days in the hospital because of it because it almost gave her pneumonia and she is 7months old. She is laying beside me sleeping now and you can hear her rattle when she breathes :( get on it now before it gets worse!

I had my first born on dec 14 so he was always congested and I was constantly on and out the hospital. They put this big thing to take the fluids out I would take the baby in just incase.

You should call the doc to be on the safe side.
