6 year old breath through mouth sleeping

2024-04-14 15:10:04
My 6 year old son recently started breathing from mouth while sleeping. Sometimes spit comes from mouth while sleeping, also he snores a little bit. He does not wake up in the middle of the night and completes his 8-9 hours sleep restfully. No issue while sleeping. All the other things are completely normal. One month ago he cought flu and had runny and blocked nose, after that all these things happened. Is it normal for children?
