HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It is understandable to concerned especially since she is your first and is so young.

If you can concerned regarding her breathing however and appears to have difficulty breathing, it is not a situation that should be assessed with seeing the child.

She should be seen by her doctor.

I hope this helps
