My 13 month old snores, so does all of her cousins (age 2, 5, 7, and 13- though the older two have done it since they were younger). their dr's have never expressed concern about it as far as i know
One of my sons snored from the day he was born. He also started sleep walking when he was about 2 years old. They thought the cause was allergies and tried medicaton, but the side effects were causing problems so I sought another opinion from and ENT. It turned out that he has sleep apnea and the snoring and the sleep walking ended once his tonsils were removed.
Quoting MommyO2-6631:
My son snored. Turned out he needed his tonsils and adenoids removed. They were very very swollen

That's what happened to my ods. His adenoids were so swollen that they said there was barely enough room to get them to remove them. After they were removed, he never snored again.
He was snoring since he was a baby and always a mouth breather. Normal baby's breathe through their nose.
