I'm by no means a doctor-botherer (unless you count sqad), but our youngest had a nagging cough and snotty nose for about 4 weeks just before Christmas. GP gave her an antibiotic and it cleared up quickly.
Even normal childhood stuff needs looked at sometimes.
Hope she feels better soon.

If the little one's a little "bunged" up. My health visitor from years ago gave me this tip.
Take a large bath towel and roll it up and tuck it over the cot mattress, (it's to stop the little one sliding down) and place a pillow under the top of the mattress to raise it a little, she said that the upper body being slightly lifted would help to ease the "bunged up ness" I found it worked rather well when my daughter was small - and even she has passed on this tip to her friend for her little girl
