đź“ť Simply noisy? Look closer.

Noisy Eating Kids should breathe silently through their nose while eating.

Possible dysfunctions:
• Mouth breathing
• Low tongue posture
• Nasal blockage
• Poor coordination of breath + chew
• Enlarged tonsils

If you can hear them breathing… it deserves attention.

Noisy Eating = Breathwork Check.

📝 Simply picky… or simply working harder to breathe?
As we continue the discuss on signs of airway dysfunction… don't forget
Sign #14: Texture Avoidance or Limited Diet

If breathing is difficult, eating becomes stressful.
Possible dysfunctions:
• Poor chewing strength
• Low tongue mobility
• Difficulty coordinating breathing + eating
• Enlarged tonsils
• Oral motor delays
These kids often prefer soft foods because they’re easier to manage.
Picky Eating Can Be an Airway Sign.

Can you think of a time when you have had a bad cold and simply not been "motivated" to eat? Imagine living like this daily!

📝 Simply “habit”? Probably not.

Sign #13: Frequent Cough/Throat Clearing

Constant irritation often comes from the airway itself.
Possible dysfunctions:
• Post-nasal drip
• Mouth breathing dryness
• Reflux
• Enlarged tonsils
• Lingering inflammation

Kids shouldn’t sound congested every day.

A Chronic Cough Isn’t “Normal for Them.”

📝 Simply sick often? Let’s look at airflow.

Mouth breathing changes the pressure system in the middle ear.

Possible dysfunctions:
• Eustachian tube dysfunction
• Adenoid inflammation
• Chronic congestion
• Poor swallow pattern impacting pressure

If ear infections keep returning, airway concerns may be contributing.

Ear Infections + Mouth Breathing = Clue.

đź“ť Simply busy? Or simply exhausted?

Hyperactivity or Trouble Focusing?

When the airway struggles at night, the brain struggles during the day.

Possible dysfunctions:
• Fragmented sleep mimicking ADHD
• Low oxygen affecting attention centers
• Chronic fatigue presenting as hyperactivity

Before assuming behavior is the issue, check breathing first.
Behavior Is Communication.

Halfway there!

Airway dysfunction shows up in a bunch of different ways! Which one has surprised you most? I didn't realize my kids were mouth breathing until I went back and scrolled through months of pictures of them and realized their mouth was never closed.

📝 Simply tired… but not from staying up late.

Daytime Fatigue Kids who don’t sleep efficiently look tired — or they look hyperactive (the paradox).

Possible dysfunctions:
• Frequent micro-awakenings
• Poor deep sleep
• Low nighttime oxygen
• Mouth breathing overnight

Some kids zone out. Others bounce off walls. Both may be tired.

Tired Kids Aren’t “Lazy” — They’re Working Hard to Breathe.

đź“ť Simply urgent: this one is a must-address.

Gasping, Pauses, or Noisy Breathing at Night These are hallmark signs of sleep-disordered breathing.
The brain is trying to reopen the airway.

Possible dysfunctions:
• Obstructive sleep apnea
• Tonsils/adenoids blocking airflow
• Tongue falling back
• Low muscle tone in the airway

If you hear this, document it and reach out to a provider ASAP.

Pauses in Breathing Are Never Normal.

đź“ť Simply unexpected? Look at sleep.

In our series looking at signs of airway dysfunction… #8 is
Bedwetting

After Age 5 Deep, disrupted sleep interferes with bladder signals.
Possible dysfunctions:
• Sleep-disordered breathing
• Low oxygen triggering stress hormones
• Arousal from breathing difficulties
• Poor sleep depth

Airway issues can confuse the brain’s “wake up” signal.

Bedwetting + Snoring? Look at the Airway.

đź“ť Simply tired? Or simply not breathing well at night?

Dark Under-Eye Circles Chronic nasal blockage or sleep disruption can change blood flow under the eyes.
Possible dysfunctions:
• Allergies
• Nasal obstruction
• Sleep fragmentation
• Low oxygen overnight

They're not “just genetics.” They’re often an airway clue.
Dark Circles Are Telling You Something.

These tissues sit in the airway. When they grow, the airway shrinks.

Possible dysfunctions:
• Snoring
• Apnea
• Chronic mouth breathing
• Feeding struggles
• Restless sleep
• “Stuffy nose” voice

Large tonsils are one of the biggest contributors to sleep-disordered breathing.

Big Tonsils = Small Airway.
