Mouth breathing when awake

My 10-month-old baby breathes through his mouth when he’s awake and playing, but during sleep, he closes his mouth and breathes through his nose. He was sick a 5-6 times in the last 2 months, but for the past 10 days, he’s fine — no cold, cough, or fever. Should I be worried about mouth breathing during awake?
