Hi , I have gone through your question and understand your concerns,

Congestion/wheezing/productive cough , commonly occurs after attack of cough , it is more common in allergic babies. You need to add medicines like salbutamol for these types of cough and cough suppressants need to be avoided . You can discuss this with your doctor .
