Coughing Baby

My DD (4 months old ) has had a cough for roughly 3 weeks. I had her at the GP at the end of week one, who checked her over advised it was likely viral and she should shake it without any intervention.

However 2 weeks later she stills has a cough, it is not as bad as it was initially but has been constant and doesn't seem to be getting any better.

Do you think I should return to the GP even if it's just to have her checked again? I would hate to waste there time.

Yes, I would personally but I am a worrier. Especially as she's so young!

Yes take her, I’d be there again if I had a cough for that long and definitely for a baby. Try to see a different doctor maybe
