Cough since 1 month

Asked for Female, 29 Years

My 3 month 7 days son has cough since last one month. I took him doctor 4 times and he said its just bronchitis and occured due to infection. Due to weather change everyone at home caught cold and cured for evryone now. But my husband's cough doesnt get cured for around 1 month. Is my baby getting affected by that??? It is difficult to manage the little one all by myself. So my husband manages him most of the times. What precautions can be taken???

your husband's prolonged cough could be the reason for the baby developing bronchitis. as long as he covers his nose and mouth while coughing, avoids coughing very close to the baby and maintains hand hygiene things should work out fine.
