Has anyone had issues with the toddlers coughing only at night and naps? This has been going on for about a week and a half maybe 2 weeks now. Right now he's sleeping next to me and keeps gagging but he's sound asleep and the cough sounds worse. I also took a video of him and it sounds like when he breathes in, he's holding his breath but now he's breathing normal again...super weird but I'm kind of worried/confused. He's been sleeping horribly since this started too which means I haven't been sleeping. No night time cough medicines help either.

@damiensmommy1117 okay! I'll do that tomorrow then! Thank you for the advice! ❤

I would make sure to tell the doctor that you've tried cold and cough medicines and propping with the pillows. I wouldn't bring up sleep apnea until the doctor tries to brush it off as nothing because some doctors get defensive if you try to tell them what you think it is. If they still don't do anything you can take him to a different doctor and lie to them and say that a different doctor suspects sleep apnea and that you want a second opinion.
@damiensmommy1117 now I'm worried! Lol I'll definitely call his doctor tomorrow then. Do I just tell her all his symptoms or should u push the fact that I think it may be sleep apnea. I know it's rare and that's the last diagnosis they lean towards so I don't want them to just say oh it's a cold because I'm 100% positive it's not just a cold.

It can just suddenly start if something in his body changed, chances are he's coughing because his throat is relaxing too much and it's closing, but his brain is yelling at his lungs to breathe so it forces air through his throat causing it to itch/tickle making him cough.
@c.mdejesus I can try that tomorrow night. He's asleep now so I don't want to wake him after he finally got comfy.
@damiensmommy1117 that was one of the first things that came up on Google but I didn't want to Google diagnos lol I'm hoping it's not that but I think I might give his doctor a call tomorrow. Can sleep apnea just suddenly start like that or could a cough mean it's getting worse?
My mom works in the sleep apnea field so that may be why my mind immediately jumps to that, but what you're describing sounds like child sleep apnea. If nothing works to help him I would get him a consultation with a pediatric sleep specialist.
@elenalee @c.mdejesus I've been doing both since this started and it doesn't help😭
Maybe try a cool mist vaporizer?
Put him elevated a little with a pillow.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
Why Are Many Women Unaware of Their Own Anatomy?
the amount of women who are clueless about their own anatomy is so sad and shocking. a lot of the women are older than me and have more children then I do 😳
now I understand that everyone has their own opinion on the topic and grown adults can do whatever they want with their bodies but to deny facts and make up false statements about your own anatomy when it comes to your unborn child is just so disappointing.
