baby choking

[marie-louise]

Just looking for advice pls, bubs is 4 months and teething like crazy, along with that he has a blocked nose and a little cough. So this past week he has had 2 choking fits where i had to turn him over and slap his back to get him breathing, I am now so nervous and wondering if anyone has any advice, please??

omg were the exact same just now Ollie had me in knots yesterday so i took him to the chemist they said Karvol is good to help clear the airways its like vicks and recommended a medicine with gylcerol in it to help break it up a little but apart from that said you just need to weather it out with them

terrifying tho isnt it xx
