When I was pregnant I went to a first aid course at St John Ambulance and it was very helpful when my baby chocked and I knew what to do. I really recommend for all parents.

I know they say not to turn kids upside down but thats what I did with all 3 of mine when they were choking. Id turn them upside down and bang on their backs….it always worked for me. Perhaps I was just lucky.

This video is a memorable way of remembering what to do for choking.
St Johns and Queensland Ambulance Service both run fantastic first aid courses and refresher courses.

My daughter was around 11months old when she was chocking on some bread and its scary but I stood her up over my arm and patted on back. She then threw up on floor. So greatful
It\’s hard not to panic. It\’s great to see this and refresh your memory.
