I woke up last night to my son crying. I picked him up and his breathing was funny. It was like he had been crying for a long time and could not catch his breath. I picked him up pretty quickly. When I put him down he was still breathing like that. He was pretty much sleeping the whole time. Could this be a bad dream? Or us it something to worry about? We fly to England in two days. Also we do have a breathing alarm in him at night.
Was it that sort of gaspy thing babies do after they cry? DD does this little gasp when she cries really hard. It's probably nothing. Maybe just see if LO does it again today.
It was the gaspy thing, but he really did not cry at all. He was calm when I picked him up and I rocked him for 5 minutes and then I put him down again,but he kept doing the gaspy thing in his sleep. I looked it up and it could be hypervenitilation.
My son does this 23 times a week while sleeping. It's always during REM sleep I can see his eyes moving under his kids. In our case, he is dreaming. Hope that's what is going on with you too!
