A Scary Moment: What I Learned From My Baby’s Choking Incident

Trigger Warning: Infant Choking Last week, I experienced every parent’s nightmare—my 9-month-old started choking on a tiny piece of banana. My heart stopped as I watched her struggle, but thankfully, I remembered the infant choking first aid steps I’d learned in a parenting class. Within seconds, she was breathing again, but the fear lingered long after. This experience reminded me how important it is to be prepared for emergencies, even during everyday moments like snack time. Now, I always keep a close eye on her and make sure her food is cut into safe, small pieces. Have you ever faced a similar scare? How did you handle it?
