I've noticed my son holding his breath lately. (7 months now) he doesn't do it for long and he kindly stiffens up or twitches (kinda like how you do in your sleep and your arm or leg just jerks) he has allergies and he was a nicu baby due to his breathing. I'm definitely asking my dr about ir because it's freaking me the hell out, but anyone have their babies to do this? is it normal? he does it asleep and awake. he doesn't seem to be in pain or act like it bothers him.
I hope so @britt16 I'm just always on edge because of the fact he had breathing problems at birth. I'm gonna try to ease my mind and just think he's experimenting with his lungs
Maybe he's just doing it to be doing it. The doctor told me that's what Tinley was doing. I never would sleep in her crib for that very reason until she stopped. @logibearsmum
Oh ok, so she was younger.. it scares me because he's an older baby and you'd think his breathing would be more regular now. but idk. I'm glad your daughter quit doing it.. thanks :) @britt16
That's understandable. I know it's hard but try not to worry too much. It scared me to death with Tinley would do it. @logibearsmum
