Childhood Asthma is a chronic lung disease characterized by tight airways -- a result of airways being too responsive. Our airways are meant to respond to harmful substances in the air. Our airways shrink when we're in a smoky atmosphere, protecting our delicate lung tissues from the noxious ingredients in the smoke. They should go back to normal in fresh air but it doesn't always work that way with asthmatics.
That's the official point of view, from a medical industry that claims not to know how to cure asthma. The people who do cure the problem say that asthma is your body's attempt to compensate for bad breathing methods. So you should learn to breathe properly.
Here are some warning signs
Breathing rate rises to more than 40 breaths/minute while the baby's sleeping.
Child refuses suckling.
Skin between ribs is pulled tight while breathing.
Rest of body seems small compared to chest.
and face is pale or red. Blue fingernails on baby show poor circulation.
Lack of breath makes him/her cry less for shorter times.
Struggles to breath through mouth and flared nostrils.
Grunts like a pig during breast feeding.
Asthma and pregnancy
Is there any way in which a pregnant mother could increase the chance of asthma in her infantren? Could you really have asthma because your mother smoked during pregnancy? (I'm not letting fathers off the hook either.) Your baby gets all it's oxygen from your breathing so you should learn to breathe properly. Your baby gets all its Oxygen from your bloodstream so if you don't breathe properly your baby will be deficient. there is a free cure and a free emergency treatment available.
Of course, the money-grubbing quacks are always present with us. They offer us quack medicine to make us feel better, while making asthma worse, while telling us there is no cure. CORRECTION: I've just discovered it's not all the medical practitioners' fault. They have been told by the medical industry that they will lose their licence to practice medicine if they tell you about the free cure for asthma.
The medical industry offers this official point of view (note the drug adverts included): "Remember: Using asthma medicine during pregnancy is much safer than letting your asthma get out of control. Such asthma medicines as inhaled beta-agonists (quick relief medicines like Maxair or Proventil), cromolyn (medicines that prevent triggers from causing reactions in your lungs, like Intal), and inhaled steroids (long-term controller medicines like Flovent) are safe for pregnant women when you take them as directed by your doctor. Please don't read the instructions as it might decrease our income." Some of that is untrue.
Singing makes you feel good and the feelings are passed on to your infant. Your unborn infant can hear the music and will recognize tunes before it can understand words. If you sing along with your husband it will make you feel even better and lessen your chance of having to use pediatric asthma medication.
Prevention of asthma in toddlers
Here is where the husband comes in. If anybody in the house smokes (see infanthood asthma symptoms above) pediatric asthma treatment is much more likely to be your never-ending task.

medical practitioners responsible for asthma in kids
You as parents may be less to blame for your infant's asthma than your medical practitioners. medical practitioners cause a lot of the trouble in their endless attempts to sell you more drugs. Tests show that antibiotics destroy the correct activity in a infant's intestine. This leads to impaired immune systems and asthma.
Abusing prescription drugs is as common as, or maybe even more common than, street drug use - and medical practitioners are often to blame. the FDA decided that not enough people had died from asthma prescription drugs to make public oppinion force them to ban these profitable drugs.
your infantren's immune system may be so weakend by steroid drugs prescribed by your medical practitioners that they catch every disease that is going around.
Danger in the showers. When chlorine vaporizes it combines with other airborne particles and forms chloroform gas which is a known cause and contributor to asthma and other respiratory problems. The U.S. EPA states that "Due to chlorine and showering, there is an elevated level of chloroform gas in virtually every home in America...". Many studies have linked chlorine to infanthood asthma and reported that most of the risks are associated with showering in chlorinated water.
Sing Your Cares Away
I can still remember the fun we had singing together when I was a infant. Singing releases endorphins into the bloodstream, making you feel positive.
But it has other benefits too. It teaches control in breathing (not the best but good) and the vibrations help to loosen mucus in the airways.
Wouldn't it be grand to have a baby that sang instead of crying? My uncle was a band leader. One day he stopped practicing the trumpet at a very difficult passage, but his baby girl kept on singing through the difficult passage from her pram behind him. Let your baby hear music all the time.About the Author:
