DD says cant get a breath sometimes

[janine]

Hard to explain, but past few days to a week DD (age 5) takes forced deep breaths. When I ask she says feels like she can't breathe. It is worst at night (maybe when most focused on it) and there is no wheezing. She sleeps fine..it's more when relaxing, sitting or lying down. Any ideas?

Anything related to breathing, I would take her in and get it checked just to find out if it's something to be worried about.

I agree. It's likely to be nothing serious but I don't mess around with breathing stuff. I might be wrong, but it sort of sounds like asthma too.
