Yeah.. unless the baby is having fever, then you just have to let him/her recover on their own.  I would watch for signs of infections.

My son Dario, 8 months now.  Was coughing big time last week, and I didn't get any sleep for a few nights, because he wasn't really sleeping well.  Anyway, I bought a Vicks humidifier which seems to help, and I use it along with the vicks pads.

PS:   Please do not use any cold/cough medication.  Report shows that it wouldn't do your baby any goods, and it may cause more harms than goods in some cases.
