Question
My baby is one and a half months old and makes a sound when breathing, feeling like there’s something in their throat, and they are also restless during sleep. I am asking for possible reasons and solutions.
Answer
Without treatment, I want to know how to handle it. If the baby does not show symptoms of a cold such as fever, runny nose, or sneezing, the simple whistling sound may be a symptom of congenital laryngomalacia. This is because the laryngeal cartilage in newborns has not fully matured. Typically, congenital laryngomalacia will heal spontaneously as the baby grows, usually between 2 to 3 years old. Parents can supplement calcium in their daily lives to promote the development of the laryngeal cartilage.
