Q.

My baby was playing nicely and making sounds but all of a sudden she started crying very loudly like breath holding, I took her in my arms and she stopped in a minute or two. I just checked if any ant bit or something but am not sure. Is it common? like breath holding

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 xiron 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 tox a new environment and then divert the child. it is a self limiting problem and will go away in next 2 or 3 months maximum.
