Hi,
Blockage of nose is frequently reported as cold in infants like this. Does you child have running nose? I t is very uncommon for a toatally breast fed child to catch cold at this early age.Blockage of nose mimics cold and can produce cough in children.A saline nasal drop before breast feeds regularly should solve your problem.otherwise your child seems to be ok.
Don't panic.have a nice day
