Breathing should be checked for 10 seconds, in that time you should be looking and checking for 3 things: 1- The rising of the chest-which would suggest the casualty is breathing. 2- Listening for breathing by the mouth-not to be confused with the alike sound of gasping in which the body sometimes does when someone is unconscious and not breathing.
Baby breathing normally varies from slow to fast depending on his level of excitement. According to The Nemours Foundation, a baby can take over 60 breaths per minute when heâs awake, particularly if heâs just finished crying. A newborn baby may also normally stop breathing completely for 5 to 10 seconds, particularly while heâs sleeping. This pattern, known as periodic breathing, will eventually evolve into a more mature breathing pattern in his first few months.
