Hello Dee,
This toddler most likely has breath holding spells, a condition inspite of
it's misleading name, is quite involuntary and usually self-limited.
Some studies have linked iron deficiency to breath holding spells.
Toddlers as a group are at a higher risk for iron deficiency due to their
finicky eating habits.
