Oh Dean, How scary! What did the doctor say? My daughter had breathing problems related to GERD when she was a baby. It did affect her breathing and cause her to become pale and her lips would turn blue for a few moments. I am glad you took your baby to the ER. Please follow up with your pediatrician.

If your daughter has reflux, we have a lot of information and support on this site for you.
