A. they are also known as breath holding spells which many times occur due to change in behaviour of the child as well as it is commonly associated with iron deficiency anaemia. it is important that you should give iron supplements to the child as well as food rich in iron and during the episode it is important to move the child away from that environment to a new environment and then divert the child.f it is a self limiting problem and will go away in next 2 or 3 months maximum. x

A. Sometimes when they cry out loud and they cannot control the breath so sometimes you can see the breath holding spells are considered very normal during that time but as the age progress situation is going to be better further if you see more of a problem I would recommend you to consult your doctor once
