Pediatrician Dr. Caity Gilman joins me this week to unpack breath-holding spells, those frightening moments when a child turns blue or pale, goes limp, or briefly loses consciousness during intense emotion or dysregulation or pain.
Together we explore:
The two types of breath-holding spells and what triggers each of them.
Are certain children more prone to these episodes based on genetics, temperament, or other factors?
What should parents do in the moment to keep their child safe, and how to know when it’s time to call their pediatrician.
What parents can do after a spell to comfort their child.
Do these spells cause any long-term harm, or are they truly benign?
How to support your child’s emotion regulation and frustration tolerance between episodes.
If you’re currently navigating breath-holding spells, or you simply want to feel more prepared for the unexpected moments that come with raising little ones, this episode offers clarity, reassurance, and practical guidance from both a pediatrician and a fellow parent who has lived this experience firsthand.
