Sleeping with mouth open with recurrent cold and cough may be due to allergies or enlarged tonsils. Please consult a senior pediatrician.  breathing rate is normal.

You need to show a pediatrician. Certain conditions like nose block, tonsil and adenoid enlargement needs to be ruled out. This may be due to allergies or infection.
