Symptom #7: Breathing Difficulty
Babies and children with Rett syndrome may express various breathing difficulties, which can be very frightening for their parents or caretakers. There are a number of different symptoms that these children may show.
These can include frequently and randomly holding their breath or hyperventilating. They may also forcibly blow their air out of their lungs as if they were aggressively sighing. Most often, these problems happen while the baby is awake but they may also demonstrate some breathing issues while they’re sleeping.
