Asthma itself if not contagious. Have you always been asthmatic? It can't be passed on from holding a baby.
Some kinds of bronchitis that happens virally (and then leads to asthma) can be contagious but it's the bronchitis, not the asthma. Your daughter is ill-informed. Perhaps a note from your doctor could help?
