8 months old baby holding breath

2026-01-17 08:59:02
My baby is now 8 months old, from last two weeks we see he sometimes holding his breath for 2-4 sec and then releasing with a "ummm" like sound. He is mostly doing it when he is playing or concentrating on something. Please let me know what we should do. He doesn't have any other abnormal symptoms and growth is proper till now.

Nothing seems worrisome but better to have a physical consultation
