Colds, or upper respiratory infections (URI) are one of the most common and contagious reasons of illness in infants and young children. They are caused by viral infections and do not need treatment with antibiotics. They usually last 7-14 days. Children can catch different viral colds in just 24 hours. So he probably just has another cold started up. But since it has been a week even though he sounded better for two days, you may want to get him checked by your pediatrician. When ever my kids cough a lot at night it means they have sinus drainage which could mean they have a sinus infection or one is trying to start. It could also mean the cold has settled in the lungs. If there is any sign of fever, ear infection, or sinus infection your pediatrician will want to start antibiotics. I would see my peidiatrician just to make sure everything sounds good. Hope your little guy feels better. www.easybabylife.com/elizabeth-muns.html
