Child stops breathing while crying

Child stops breathing while crying

My son is 11 months old. Many times when he starts crying, he stops breathing and his face starts becoming blue. He also becomes still for some time and closes his eye. Othertimes he remains normal. Is this any serious problem.

This behavior is not regarded as abnormal. It is different from episodes when infants spontaneously stop breathing when they are not in distress. For your own reassurance be sure to speak with his pediatrician about this. He/she will likely comfort you that your son's behavior is not problematic.
