Everyone experiences pauses in breathing once in a while. This does not only happen to adults but to babies as well. This breathing pattern is called apnea. Although this is completely normal for some, it may also be related to certain health conditions that should be a cause for concern especially when it happens to your baby. You may need to look for a baby sleep apnea monitor.

The Different Types of Apneas
The word apnea has its origin from a Greek word which means “without wind”. It is the medical term used to describe the occasional cessation of breathing of a person. Even though it is normal, it may also be a symptom of something more serious that is health related.
