Just like everyone, I adore reading Melissa’s blog, Dear Baby. Recently she posted about Everly choking and I had a mini heart attack. In a moment of panic would I remember how to help Jemma (or another baby) if they were choking?
This spurred an email to our family/friends …
Feel free to roll your eyes … I am officially that mom. The one that emails her family/friends about infant CPR and such. They say moms are usually too panicked to help their kiddos, so it’s up to those around them to save the day. That’s where you come in …
Please take a quick moment (like really, it’s less than 2 minutes) and watch these two videos: Infant Choking and How to Help a Choking Child. Then I’ll consider you officially trained and allow you to hang out with my little munchkin whenever you want :)

Thanks for the video links. I have taken an infant CPR class twice since becoming a mama. It's one of those skills I love to learn and pray I'll never have to use!
