Post nasal drip?

smash1228

My LO is almost 5 weeks old. For the last week she sounds like she has phlegm stuck in the back of her throat. She tries to clear it, she coughs, and chokes on it. I know that some congestion is normal, especially since she was born via csection, but I feel like it has gotten a little worse in the last few days. She doesn't have a fever, eats well(other than spitting up more recently) and has plenty of wet/dirty diapers. Also, no stuffy/runny nose. She has very thick saliva, so I'm not sure if it her saliva that she is choking on or actually phlegm. Has anybody every experienced this? I emailed her ped, waiting for a response if they would like to see her. Thanks!
