Answers:
Im not really sure what it is exactly, but there could be a lot of reasons for the cough!. I would say that the symptoms you are describing are much like bronchitis, its like a cold but the cough is strong and there is a lot of mucus (this is the only "cold" I have thrown up from before) also, the mucus can be discolored like green or dark!. If she has this for a while, it may need to be treated with antibiotics!. If it lasts for more than her colds usually do, then make sure you remind the doctor that it is not getting better and to force that !.!.!. She could also be allergic to something, but I don't think she would vomit from that!.

My doctor told me I didn't need antibiotics when I had these symptoms for over a week, but when he finally gave them to me, I felt better almost immedietly!.

The mucus is probably draining into her chest, since babies cant spit loogies out of their throat!. So try your best to clear her nose!. I hope she gets better!Www@Answer-Health@Com
