just been up to feed milliepops (well about an hour ago now) and she spluttered on some milk. i think she mustve dozed off with some in her mouth then it went down the wrong way. altho shes always spluttering, she does it on her own spit quite often!
so its happened before, so as i usually do i stood up with her straight away, held her upright against my shoulder and patted her back firmly. usually about 3 pats and shes fine- if that actually, she often has recovered from it herself before iv even started patting.
but this time, after a few pats, she was still spluttering, sounded like she was struggling. i panicked, and patted harder, almost slapping her back loads, and still she was spluttering
the baby monitor was on so i yelled "help!" and my boyf came pelting up the stairs in about 2 steps. when he got in she'd recovered, although she still coughed a few times. only when she'd got up the last of the milk off her chest she started crying, not a whimper, a proper business cry! (not surprised, it mustve frightened her!)
she was fine then, but OMG iv never been so frightened!
going to bed now, she'll get extra cuddles 2nite!
