Baby Gets Upset And Passes Out!!! Posted: 09-18-07 08:58am
It has happened twice! When my one year
old gets upset from not getting her way
she starts to cry but something changes.
She tries to cry and is going through the
facial expression of crying but nothing
comes out. She gets really red and them
completely passes out. She comes out of
it pretty quickly and is fine but it is
very scary! Went to doctor and they said
it is a manipulative that children
sometimes go through and nothing to worry
about. She is actually holding her breath
and knocks herself out.
Looking for a second opinion..........

That doesn't sound normal to me.
Personally I would go to another doctor
for a second opinion.

Baby Passing Out Posted: 12-03-07 21:17pm
I have a 14 month baby, and he has passed
out 4 times in the last month. I have
read, and understand that 5% of the babies
have this "ability". I call it ability
because it is use to Manipulate their
parents. There is nothing you can do exept
for NOT letting them have the things their
way.
This moments involve a lot of tranquility
and patience! Dont Panic!!!

My son has passed out in this fashion
since he was about 6 months old (he's now
17 months). Some days it happens 3 times,
some days once. We don't usually go a day
without him passing out. From what I've
read and been told, it is doing no
long-term damage. It does happen in about
5% of children, so we're the lucky ones!
Be encouraged that you're not alone.
Supposedly they grow out of it by 5-ish.
Mine passes out from pain, too, not just
not getting what he wants.
Don't worry!

My son too use to do this (he is now 3yrs)
it first happened when he was 12 wks old
which was very very scarey.
He used to do this when he was in pain (he
suffered with reflux) he grew out of it
from about 8mths.
Just wanted to let you know you are not
alone and it is quite common, its shouldnt
effect your child and they will grow out
of it.
