A member asked:
What are the symptoms of premature baby "pauses" in breathing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Apnea: Apnea is stopping breathing for about 15 seconds but premature babies do periodic breathing also(slow than fast then slow). The more premature the more likely to have some apnea. They do grow out of this.
