bronchiolitis shouldn't last for more than a week or 2. two month is a long time. Childhood asthma needs to be ruled out.

Its actually bronchiolitis which is due to viral infection and common in children less than 5 years. After 5 years its frequency decreases. Avoid and prevent from cold, dust and other allergy you have. Most of the times it resolves on its own. But if the child is having difficulty in breathing, noisy breathing and fever or other difficulties please visit the nearby hospital and consult with pediatrician.
