A 6-year-old having a 100 heart rate per minute while sleeping can be normal. For kids, the rate of the heart can change with the activities they do, the emotions they feel, and the sleep. The abnormality of the heart rate to 100 while sleeping can be because of dreams or a low-grade virus infection. If your child seems ok as well as doesn't have any other symptoms, observe the situation. If you are worried or you see any odd symptoms, talk to a cardiologist.

Your baby unfortunately has a double aortic arch, which is a makeup of his heart and vessels. It means the aorta, a major blood vessel, does not take its usual path. That is why children may have trouble breathing and difficulty swallowing. The good news is that this can be treated with surgery performed after the baby is born for most of the children. Doctors will talk more about what that means and guide you through it.

When a baby gets born with a heart issue, their body doesn't receive enough blood flow. This condition, cyanotic congenital heart disease, causes a blue hue on their skin. The heart struggles to pump blood properly, leaving infants appearing tired and breathless. Doctors can improve blood circulation and heart function through surgeries. But catching it early and getting treatment right away is crucial.
