Is it normal that my newborns chest always sinks in like that when he's breathing? He's not sick or having difficultly breathing, I'm just confused as to why it's sunken in

Question

Answer

My son had this when he was born and his doctor wasn't worried at all. They always checked it when we went for appointments but it never caused any problems. He's 16 months now and you can't even notice it anymore.

Answer

I think it's normal, my son has this, not as deep but it definitely sinks in that area too. If he's not got laboured breathing or breathing really fast he may be fine.

Answer

Maybe ask your doctor at the next visit to make sure that’s what it is 💙 I hope all is well

Answer

Umm I saw this on an a&e show once... think this is actually bad? Please speak to a doctor x
