Hello! Based on your description, the newborn baby is only 58 days old and suddenly started crying with dry coughing at night. There are no obvious symptoms of fever, runny nose, or sneezing, which may be due to being startled. The environmental temperature is dry. It is recommended that you enhance care and provide reasonable feeding, ensuring a comfortable and warm environment. The situation you described cannot be determined as a specific issue. What does the cough sound like? It is advisable to take the child to the hospital to check if there is a problem. It could also be possible that the child was dreaming. If it only happened once and the child shows no other symptoms, you can wait and see.
