My 14 week old baby has been fussy for the past couple of days, and barely taking 4 ounces, sometimes only 3! When he usually takes 4-6 oz. He has a minor cough, and I can hear phlegm also.. He even may eat 2 oz, and then eat more one hour later.. what could it be??

Hi, welcome to HCM. Can understand your concerns. Your child most probably has lower respiratory tract infection. You should get the child examined by a doctor.
