This is why you should check on your baby when she cries harder then normal.
Jessica is not a fan of being on her tummy. This morning when I got up at both 6am and 7am she was crying because she was on her tummy. Today I put Jessica down for her morning nap all wrapped up in her blankets like normal. After about 3 minutes she had rolled over onto her tummy and began crying. So I figured we would try to put her down for her nap unwrapped and see how it went. She cried for a little while but did end up falling asleep. After about 30 minutes she started to cry. Usually her morning nap is between 1-3 hours long so I figured I would let her fall back asleep herself. She just cried harder and harder and when I went in to check on her and try to comfort her she had somehow wedged her leg through the crib bars and it was stuck between the crib and the wall. I pulled the crib away from the wall and tried to push her leg back through the bars when suddenly her crying stopped. I looked up and her face and she was choking on her throw up. I tried to turn her head so she could spit it out but her whole body had stiffened. So with her leg still stuck I sat her up and leaned her as far forward as the crib bars would allow. She then swallowed it and began crying hysterically. Once she was able to breath again I managed to get her leg unstuck and as you could imagine her nap wasn't going to happen. I picked her up and held her while she held me tighter then she has ever held me before. Poor baby was so scared and so was her mama!



Wow. scary. way to be there in time momma!
Ohmigosh, that is so scary. I'm so glad you decided to go in and check on her!
