When they were a toddler, they had a bad case of pneumonia and were also born underweight due to maternal mental presssure (back then, mom married into a rough traditional conservative household). Now completely fine. I would even say my sibling is more healthy than me, more physically active for sure because of the nature of their work.
So I have noticed they often wake up gasping for air.i wonder if it’s because they sleep facing the ceiling chest up. Or if it’s because they ALWAYS fall asleep while scrolling and watching YouTube (shorts addict they are, I have to admit).
Our family hasn’t really thought of it much for years. He always ends up finding air anyways. But he wakes up gasping then he coughs like once or twice loudly and he is fine. But it’s like a first gasp and can’t breath and then a second long breathe after realizing he can’t breathe which clears up his throat or something.
Should he get checked? If so, what is it that you think is causing this ?
