Thought I was trained, but didn't know about the upside down whack to the back.
Smart, pretty, willing to act on behalf of others...Potent combo...She will go far in this life...
Easier to do with an infant than an adult of course.
Bless you kiddo.
Gimme an H...

my wife and I took a short emergency training class for parents before our first was born.
There, they taught us to put little ones on your leg so their diaphragm sits on your knee (head away from you. Then, give them a couple of back thrusts.
I suspect what she did is a version where your palm is on the diaphragm, for bigger kids.
Side note: two nights before I got married, we flew down to south Florida for the actual event. I get to my moms house, find some leftover skirt steak and proceed to choke because it was chewy and I swallowed a big chunk. My brother is a little guy, maybe 130 lb soaking wet. He couldnt get enough power on my 175 lb frame to dislodge it. I put my diagram on a rounded edge in the kitchen and he pummeled my back. It worked.
Side side note: I ate another piece and he had to do it again. It was a big joke during his best man speech, that he saved my life twice in 5 minutes because I was a moron.
” I ran down to the kiddo, and I was like,...”
About 10 yrs ago I used ‘kiddo’ in a text to an 18 yr old and I had the distinct impression it meant something to her other than I understood it to mean. She seemed to regard it as some kind of slight. I see here it is used differently than in the past.
My eyes feel a little fuzzy...
Hope you didn’t tempt fate a third time.
What a wonderful young woman!!
