Hello,

How old is the baby?

I would advice you to consult a pediatrician.

Dry cough can be treated by anti histamine drops or syrup depending on your baby age. Dosage will be decided based on baby weight.
Monitor baby for fever, restlessness.
Continue feeding baby.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help

Wish you good health.
