I have an 8 month old boy, who developed a cold in early March, and since then has had a cough. We started Flovent and Salbutamol 2 puffs each 2 times a day about 2 weeks ago, there has been a slight improvement. He is not coughing as much, but when he does he always finishes the cough with this kind of gasping sound, I find it hard to explain. Of course when I go to the doctor he will not perform the cough for them, so therefore hard for them to hear what I am trying to explain. Is this a sign of asthma? There is a family history of asthma. My father, and my husband both have asthma. My husband had asthma as a child but grew out of it. Two of my nieces on my husband are very prone to bronchitis and pneumonia. Any input would be great. Thanks.
