When my lo was newbrn I asked my hv as her breathing didnt really follow any pattern. She said that after a few weeks there breathing should establish some sort of pattern.
In general, babies and childrens breathing rate is faster than adults. I read the other day (probable more for older babies) that if your childs breathing is fast and they seem okay in themselves, it maybe because they are too hot. Thought this is a good tell tell sign.
How many breathes is your lo doing per 30 secs?
Dont know if I have actually been much help! xxx
thanks again xxxxxxxxxxxx
