Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
Faster heart beat and a faster respiration during activity is normal in any child. I would be interested to know if he can do little bit of activity which normally any child of his age group can do without any tiredness? I mean to say, does he gets really tired to have to rest on doing normal activities like breast feeding or drinking from bottle etc. If that's the case, I would suggest you to get him evaluated by a pediatric cardiologist and make sure his heart is normal. And if that's normal, starting iron syrup for him would help. Happy to clear any further doubts. Take care.
