What Is The Treatment For Shortness Of Breath?
My baby is 6 months old and has been crying hard for 30 mins. She now has settled/ stopped crying, however she is now short of breath (taking a double breath, pause exhale) repeating. She has never done this before, how can I sooth her breathing back to normal?

Hi... I suggest you to put her on the shoulder and pat her on the back and I also suggest you not to feed her till her breathlessness is completely better. Feeding during fast breathing can cause aspiration.
