Hello,


my 10 month old has had a dry cough for 3 weeks now...it started off as a heavy cold/cough, but the last two weeks, she only seems to get it at night (and nap times, occasionally).


I just wondered if anyone had any experience of coughs lasting this long...maybe its quite normal, but stupidly i googled it, and predictably enough it could indicate almost anything. I have been to the doctor, but for know she says to 'see how it goes'...

Up to date with immunisations and otherwise well - it is not unusual for a cough to linger for some weeks after a cold or to be worse at night. You could try moistening the air using a humidifier (using a damp towel in front of the radiator also works but is a bit impractical in summer!) - this may offer some relief.


I do sympathise - after my baby had a cold the night-time coughing would drive me to the point of insanity!

    • Now I have heard everything…..not send your kid to a school because you don’t like the name - so to get my head around this, if school is outstanding, parents won’t send their child there because of name of school? Or have I not understood?
    • A quick Google says that it is not undersubscribed unlike many subject schools so those claims mentioned above may not be true. Last Ofsted was good.  You are definitely right about the money. This is what trusts do. Remove word ‘subject’ above Remove word ‘subject’ above I can’t edit my ridiculous errors but would like to apologise  for messy post
    • I have heard claims that people don't send their children there because of the name of the school..?  I genuinely cannot get my head around this one. The school is named after the road it is on which is named after the history of the area!  'Grove Primary School' is potentially the most boring name they could have come up with, and for a school struggling financially, is rebranding the school really the best use of funds? 
    • Certainly unique, can't argue with that.
