  1. If he had stoped breathing and turned limped why did you not call EMS. I'm a pediatric nurse and do most of my children's care at home for them but if they stopped breathing and turned limp I would be calling 911.


  2. dont take any chances.  take him to the hospital.  omg that sounds scary.

  3. take him to a hospital! this happened to my son...he had a collapsed lung from asthma, and ended up in the hospital for a week

  4. take him to the er.ASAP!!!

  5. 999 NOW!

  6. My advice would be to take him to the doctor/hospital as soon as possible. Being very tired does not equal passing out/stop breathing. Something is going on.....

  7. Please take him to a hospital ASAP and let them know what is going on. This is not normal and needs to be checked extensively.


  8. uh yeah. get off the computer and go to the ER. seriously. use some good judgment.

  9. other than someone wanting attention, why on earth would u  post this when you should be worrying about your baby and getting it some help, NOW!

    sheesh, some ppl don't need to be parents...

  10. Does he have a fever?  Was it a form of temper tantrum where he was holding his breath?

    Sounds scary... I'd get him checked out.

  11. was he crying whilst you were doing this??? sometimes when a baby cries too much they hold their breath which coincidentally makes them stop breathing for a second or too but natural body instinct makes them black out type of thing to make them breath again however this isn't normal and you need to speak to your doctor/health visitor about this as prolonged lack of oxygen cause brain damage and there may be a underlying condition

  12. hospital...NOW!!  That is not good, turning blue is not a "slight" loss of O2, it is a MAJOR loss!

  13. No idea but please, please get him to a doctor, this sounds very dangerous
