my baby is phlemy too, even i do cupping for him daily, it doesnt help much.. i continue to give him my bm.. but i do take note and change my diet, initially i had at least 1 cold drink everyday. now i stop, and i try not to eat chicken too. i simply avoid the foods that an adult should if he is coughing. Not sure hw much of the content of the food we ate are passed down to baby through our bm, but i just trial n error to monitor. its just like some mummies dont take alcohol while bf.. everybaby might be different, one mummy can eat everything and anything, and baby doesnt have any reaction, while another might need to avoid nuts, dairy, eggs and even some veg as baby have allergic reaction to it.. so mummy trial and error to see if which method works for ur baby.. most imptly is observe ur baby condition.. condition worsen pls go to pd.
