Baby fake wheezing?

Question

So, my daughter is 5 months on Sunday and the last couple of days during her bottle or food she starts making a wheezing sound...
She's perfectly fine in herself, no breathing issues normally, no temperature or anything which makes me think she has discovered she can do this and is messing with me?
She smiles and giggles throughout so she isn't in any distress..
Is anyone elses baby doing this?

Answer

I actually brought this up to my daughters doctor because I was worried as her daddy and brother have asthma. Her doctor actually said that rather than wheezing (which he said A LOT of parents think it is) it’s congestion that babies have/do and is completely normal. 😊

Answer

I think it's congestion. My baby has kind of always done this. I think milk gets kind of in the back of her throat/nose and makes noise. It usually clears after she finishes her bottle and swallows a few times.

Answer

Babies aren’t developed emotionally/mentally to “mess with you”... at this age they BARELY have a sense of basic cause and effect “if I drop the toy, mom will get it.” 
Is the flow too fast for her? Is she taking in air? Is she chewing on the nipple? There are any number of valid reasons babies may make sounds at the breast or bottle that are not illness related, I always begin from the standpoint of “I believe you, how can I help?” ... if you can’t figure it out call your pediatrician, I’m sure they would be happy to have you come in and show them what’s happening so they can try to help.

Answer

My son did that for like 3 weeks lol but not while eating tho so maybe the nipple?
