Is it ok to pat your baby back to help to spit out (to be exact vomit out) phlegm in her chest? My baby is just 4 mo, and have been coughing so bad. We are using nebulizer but I don't see its helpful as she is still coughing so bad. I am told to keep a watch till Friday to see if coughing will continue and becoming bronchitis. Any mum can share their experience? Thanks !

Yes patting your baby back (near the neck area) could help. I went to the Tcm for baby and this is the advice from them for my baby who is having phlegm. Patting at the back will helps the baby to cough it out.
