#asktheexperts my baby girl is 21 days old only. since starting when I lay her down to sleep on the bed she makes sounds from her throat and then coughs what I realised that she is not able to intake saliva which gets filled up in her mouth and as she is not able to swallow then she coughs. however she is able to drink milk while being breastfed. why is she not able to swallow her saliva in laying down position on the bed??
