Sorry hun, but it sounds like Asthma. It's possible to have asthma and a persistent night time cough is the only symptom. It is sometimes triggered/preceeded by a cold.
A croup cough and a night asthma cough sound different. Your GP will know. I personally would recommend that after seeing a GP they refer you to a specialist if it is asthma, so that you can formulate an asthma plan.
There is medication (non-steriodal) for the asthma cough - but they need it for a long time.

Lenny - that is my gut feeling unfortunally! i resorted to Dr Google last night and everything i read makes it sound like Asthma!
The doctor was sick himself this morning so i am going to try and get her another appt ASAP!
i REALLY hope it isn't asthma! Hopefully it's the same as Taurean's DD!
But meanwhile i will be vaporising and chest rubbing her up like everyone has suggested! thank you for your replys
