Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
There should be suspicious of tracheo osophageal malformation like atresia or fistula so evaluation should be done and what about his/her growth? You didn't mention that. Please do pediatrics consultation with investigations.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
