Breath-holding spells
My 10 month old has done this twice in the last few days.. The other day, she got upset after getting out of the tub. I was putting her diaper on and she started screaming crying. Then, she stopped crying, her mouth was wide open, and she started turning blue. Her arms somewhat jerked and her eyes started twitching. I screamed for my husband who had stepped outside and then remembered he wasn’t inside. I flipped her over and banged her on the back and she started crying again. I assumed she got choked up some mucus or something because she has had a cold. Well, just a little bit ago she did it again. She got mad when I was changing her, started screaming crying, then started getting this look on her face that i just can’t exactly explain. She started turning blue and then she passed out. It was briefly, maybe 3-5 seconds, then she came back to and had a scared look on her face. I googled seeing if it was possible for babies to hold their breath out of anger, and it is. I’m just wondering if any other mommy’s have experienced this? Thanks in advance.
