Croup does not typically go on for several weeks. Ask your doctor for other possible diagnoses.

Whooping cough was my first thought too. Otherwise, any mold/water damage in the home?
What is baby being treated with? Any new foods?

Whopping cough comes exactly the way you described. Not constant. I remember a few yrs ago when it was going around in Brooklyn. Ds had it bh a mild case. But those attacks were as scary as can be.

These are coughing attacks? Stridor attacks?
Were you given a nebulizer?

But without the stridor part of it (which would indicate inflammation in the throat in line with croup)? Just those awful very intense coughing attacks? It could be many things then- whooping cough, rsv, athsma..... Just some ideas....
IY"H will be resolved quickly and easily
Refuah Sheleimah!
