Most newborn babies breath rapidly , they are still getting used to being outside the womb and breathing on their own, their lungs are still developing also, the baby will soon get into a proper breathing rhythm as he/she gets older

Hi. Just to supply you a few peace of brain, my youngster had the equal predicament. She used to be born three one million/two weeks early and she or he had a speedy breathing fee. She used to be no longer within the NICU however needed to keep within the nursery for a while. The nurses desired her to have a common fee for an effective hour earlier than she might come to my room. If that didn't occur earlier than 6 hours the Neonatal Specialist might come to verify her out. It ended up that she needed to be looked at through the expert and he gave her the OK to return to my room. She is now two months ancient and has no longer had a unmarried predicament when you consider that.

Well, can't really say from the information you are giving us here. I don't think it's common. But, I had a preemie, and they recommended holding her on my chest as much as possible for lots of skin-to-skin contact. They said this would keep her warm, and actually help her pattern her respiratory patterns after mine (regulate her breathing.) So, I even slept with her on my chest for the first few months (at the nurse's advice.)
Hope this helps!
