Question
What should I do if my baby accidentally chokes on water during a bath?
Answer
If a baby chokes on water during a bath, the first step is to immediately lift the baby out of the water and ensure they are breathing freely. If the baby shows symptoms like coughing, wheezing, or discomfort, contact a medical professional immediately. While waiting for emergency services to arrive, try to have the baby lie on their side and gently tap their back to help them cough out the water. At the same time, monitor the baby’s breathing and color changes; if any abnormalities are detected, perform CPR immediately and call emergency services.
