My one year old daughter breathes between 42-45bpm at rest. when she is sleeping its around 25-30. i have been to the pediatrician, but they did not seem concerned as it doesnt appear she is struggling to breathe. online say it should be around 30?

Where you got 30 as an upper limit/age is confusing, mine is 40. What you mean by at rest is also a problem. Sleep= the best at rest measure. Breathing rate should reflect the metabolic or physical activity of a kid. While moving/growing/digesting a meal all require more oxygen which is provided by a more breathing. If the kid acts sickly, see your doc. A doc visit with an okay is valuable.

The respiratory rate measurement may vary and if your daughter is otherwise well, a routine visit with your Pediatrician is recommended. If you hear cough, wheezing, upper airway sounds or notice drooling/difficulty breathing, please see a physician soon. Monitor temperature, provide adequate hydration and keep immunizations up to date. Ensure that there is no source of pain and no fever.
