Whooping Cough Sound Could This Be Whooping Cough?

Could this be whooping cough? - whooping cough sound

My baby is 8 months has had a cold about 1 1 / 2 weeks. Yesterday evening and today I coughed. But not to the point of exhaustion, but one bell mucous cough lasts for 2-5 seconds or less. No sound at the end of pertussis. It also has a slight fever 99.5 or later. We gave him Tylenol, which brought down.

The strange thing is now, and it is important not to cough, at least 4-5 times a cry. "Again, no cough in advance. It just suddenly stop breathing throughout the day, cough in various stages of this. So again tonight with a slight cough, spitting of milk for a few minutes after feeding, it rarely.

Apart from that seems good, good and not evil. It was not any pain or discomfort seems, except when she coughs.

This is whooping cough? Have no doubt, go to the doctor Monday, but I wonder whether the emergency room worthy. Thank you!
