What to Do If a Baby Is Choking

It was a life-or-death moment as Florida cops worked tirelessly to save a choking toddler. The child’s sobbing mom, Amanda Zimmerman, looked on outside her Kissimmee home as an officer calmly thumped the unconscious 1-year-old on the back after he choked on a Goldfish cracker. Another officer then joined in, and both turned the limp infant over to do perform chest compressions. Then, an officer grabbed first aid equipment from the patrol car and rushed over to help the child.
