Listen to Your Child's Breathing

Asthma in children can have many different physical and behavioral symptoms. Paying close attention to your child can help you spot the early warning signs of asthma.
Here's a list of common symptoms, courtesy of the American Lung Association:
Coughing that is not related to an illness, especially at night.
Frequently clearing of the throat.
Irregular breathing.
Wheezing, even slightly.
Labored or very loud breathing.
In some children who are having an asthma attack, the notch just above the Adam's apple sinks in as they breathe.
Unusual paleness or sweating.
