Mamanya Dafi Sleep Concerns: Snoring / Snorting Why it happens Occasional snoring is common and no cause for alarm, and if your baby or toddler is sawing logs more frequently, it may be because he has allergies or is congested from a cold. But if your child is snoring or snorting continually during sleep, it may be a sign of sleep apnea. This is a serious sleep disorder in which enlarged adenoids (glands in the throat just behind the nose) and / or tonsils repeatedly block the upper airway passages during the night, making it difficult for your child to breathe. When your child's muscles relax at night, oversized glands can temporarily block air from getting to his lungs. Whatever the cause, snoring may be depriving your child of some of the benefits of sleep � when he can't breathe, he automatically wakes up briefly � and could lead to problems during the day, too. Many children who snore tend to be drowsy during the day, have weight problems and difficulty in school, get headaches in the morning, and wet the bed more frequently than children who don't snore. What you can do about it If you think your baby has sleep apnea, start by telling his doctor about it. He'll probably refer you to an ear, nose, and throat specialist to have your child's tonsils and / or adenoids evaluated and possibly removed. This relatively simple outpatient operation usually does the trick. Some children develop sleep apnea because they're overweight; if that's the case for your child, his doctor will help you modify his diet. If your child's snoring or snorting is connected to illness or allergies, ask his pediatrician about the best way to proceed. For a cold you'll probably just have to hang in there, but if the cause is allergies, using an air purifier, keeping your house pet-free, monitoring what your child eats, or giving him medication may help. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
