WOW, I cried watching him sleep silently! What a blessing! I am so happy for him! Thanks for sharing that video!
Eden said, “Poor little guy. I am so glad he went home after a few days. Poor little guy, he sleeps better now.”
God Bless my little nephew!! I’m so happy that he can sleep peacefully now!! I love you Mathias!!
what has been done to him?
Surgery corrected the problem
Very cute!!
May God bless him.
Very precious.
What type of surgery did he have?
Tosillectomy and adoinectomy
My son has the same thing! He is 13 and set for a Tosillectomy and adoinectomy. Did he he have good results? Good for you getting the jump on it, we discovered it very late at 13 years. Good to see I love kids
We have great results~ He is up and awake in the morning, much more energy.
when did you find out he had OSA?
He had surgery was he was 4. But the year previously the symptoms were getting worse and worse. He would wake us up down the hall in our bedroom with the snores, and when he would hold his breath, it would make you want to shake him to get him to breathe again. Clearly at such a young age…it is anatomical, the enlargement of the soft tissues and adenoids in the back of the throat. He is in no way overweight like most adults with obstructive sleep apnea.
My son has the same thing and he is 11 months.
He’s fortunate. I have a family member with sleep apnea who sleeps once every few days & needs this contraption with a mask & distilled water.
I’m happy to see this video …
only about 60% of adults with OSA are overweight. yes, overweight does make it worse, but other people should not make the mistake of thinking they can”t have OSA.
believe me I have the same issue where I sleep either good bad or not at all. Sometimes it’ll be three days before I finally get some sleep. It is possible.
My cousin’s daughter had the same thing. She just had her toncils out.
great video
Funnily enough I’m currently sat downstairs with my sleeping 3 yr old son, who makes identical noises whilst sleeping. His mouth open, gasps, grunts, constantly moving, moments of silence, he’s been like this since birth. His lack of interest in eating is worring as well. Have actually filmed footage of how his ribs ‘cave-in’ when inhaling and shown to his doctor only to be told his chest sounds fine. Looks like I’ll be asking for a second opinion.
See a pediatric ENT, (otolaryngologist).If the child also has a sunken chest (pectis excavatum) the symptoms will be exaggerated.
I’m very happy for you and your son. I was diagnosed with sleep apnea when I was 30. I wonder if I had sleep apnea as a child and if people knew what it was back then, if I could have been treated? Kudos to you for recognizing it early and helping your child get a good nights sleep.
My son had sleep apnea also and was operated just last week. Now he can breathe and sleep normally, no more choking and gagging while asleep. Thanks for posting the video.
that’s great…..it was so sad to see him gasping for air…cute kid ?
