Question

My baby is six and a half months old, and they experience severe holding their breath whenever they cry. How should I handle this situation?

Answer

When a baby holds their breath while crying, it may be due to oxygen deprivation caused by the crying. In such cases, you should immediately stop the baby’s crying or pick them up and move them to a well-ventilated area. In severe cases, oxygen therapy may be required to prevent oxygen deprivation-related brain damage.
