My 4 year old has been coughing for 2 and a half weeks now with no other symptoms. She is not coughing at night, and I noticed she coughs a lot when in public like at a store. She also does it more around my husband than me. He will remind her to cover her mouth or cough into her elbow, I just ignore it. She also is not coughing at night. I suspected she was perhaps fake coughing or doing it for attention, but her morah mentioned today that she has been coughing a lot at school, and maybe we should get it checked out.
Has this ever happened to anyone? I'm a little nervous.

It sounds like a lot of kids with winter coughs
If your nervous go to the pediatrician but it doesn’t sound crazy

Nebulizer works wonders for my kids when they have that hacking cough

Yeah it happened to my 4 year old too. Then it went away after a while. There’s a lot of viruses going around specifically now and specifically with respiratory symptoms. Your dr will be able to tell you if she needs a chest x ray or it’s just viral related.

Sounds typical of coughs toddlers get. Why are you so worried? It doesn't sound concerning at all. Coughs can last up to 3 months

My 10 year had a hefty cough for 2 months but not at night.
The Dr decided to try allergy meds. It's now q weeks later and it's almost gone.
