POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy6 months agoA. It's fairly common for babies to make snoring-like sounds during sleep, especially in the early months. This can be caused by a variety of factors such as:
Nasal Congestion: Babies have smaller airways, and a bit of congestion can cause sounds like snoring. Sleep Position: Sometimes, the position your baby sleeps in might cause temporary airway obstruction or compression, leading to snoring. Mucus: Babies often have some mucus in their nasal passages, which can create snoring-like sounds as they breathe.
However, if the snoring is accompanied by other signs such as difficulty breathing, restless sleep, or if it worsens over time, it could indicate a more serious issue like an upper respiratory infection or enlarged tonsils. In that case, it's best to consult your pediatrician to rule out any underlying health concerns.
You can also try elevating your baby's head slightly during sleep or using a humidifier in the room to help with congestion.
