My daughter is 5 months, she has had a croupy cough for a few days, and now i have a sore throat. is it contagious?

Yes: Your daughters cold is most likely caused by a virus. All viral URI's are contagious. Good hand washing may help prevent transmission. Many times, the first symptom of a cold is a sore throat.
