    Toddler
    My 2 year old has been having problem breathing during sleep, sometimes he will stop breathing for like 6 seconds an then take a big gasp for air or cry. His pediatrician thought it wasn't a problem. Today I noticed he is foaming to the mouth while sleeping. I feel he is getting worst. Do you have any suggestion?

    I would get the child back to the Doctor or to an ER ASAP

    Sounds like it might be time for a new pediatrician too

    Yes, different doctor, perhaps even a breathing specialist.
    And ASAP, even ER when that happened

    It's definitely time for a second opinion.

    There are baby/toddler moniters for this. You need to find a doctor that knows about it and get one. My niece kept not breathing when she slept and my sister had her on one for awhile.
