DD is 8 months and has had a cough and cold for a couple of weeks now. I took her to the doctor who said her throat and chest were fine and I should give her lots of fluid, rest etc.
This evening, she has occasionally made a whooping sound when she coughs. The cough is worse when she is asleep and the whopping isn't every time she coughs. I've listened to some audio files online and it does sound like whooping cough.
I'm just wondering whether to take her to a&e or wait and see a GP first thing?
Thanks from a very worried mum.
