Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi, breath holding spells tend to decrease as child grow older. The symptoms which you have narrated are not related to seizures, it can be a habitual thing. I think you should not worry about this and encourage your child to eat more and stay healthy.
I hope this has helped you.
Wishing your child good health.
