When Misha sleeps, he tends to tuck his head in toward his chest and when he does this and is in a deep sleep, he breathes kind of weird like his soft palate is obstructing his breathing. I've never worried about it as he only does this when in deep sleep but I am wondering if this is normal. It doesn't seem to cause any problem but I'm always on the lookout for any signs of potential issues. I do wonder if it's related to his dreaming. He will often do this intermittently while sleeping and often he's clearly dreaming while doing it because his feet and mouth twitch. Just wondering if it's normal. I have made a video of it but it sounds much louder in the video than it really is because the camera was right next to his nose. It is really like a soft little snoring noise. I don't think he does it if his head is stretched out rather than tucked in. If I poke him and he wakes up he immediately stops breathing like this, even if he hasn't changed position.
