Just relax. It sounds like you're in good hands.
The gland isn't hot, red &/or tender, nor is she acting sick, so no need to do anything immediately. Waiting a couple weeks to see if it changes is the right thing to do at this point.
Kids that age are always getting bombarded with harmless bugs they've never seen before, teething etc etc that can cause nodes in the neck/throat to flare up.
If she does start acting sick, or if the node starts to hurt, turn red &/or swell rapidly, then see the doc again sooner....And don't go messin' with it too much! You may irritate it and make it look worse than it is.
