So i angkat jer Darwish to my lap(while im standing) and did a few back slap.Tak sanggup nak wat abdominal thrusts (Heimlich maneuver) kat Darwish..Lagipun,im not confident enuf..takut injure his internal organs... makin bertagar first aid skill ku..Damn!!

After a few back slaps,Darwish masih lagi menangis..But crying is a good sign.At least he can breath..He even take my hand and put it into my mouth to take the stucked candy ..I nearly wanted to cry again but i know i shudnt..Its wont help..I need to think and work fast..

I did another back slaps..Selalunya Darwish berat,tapi kali he seem a lil lighter..The adrenaline that rushed in me seemed to help me alot..

Darwish muntah tapi lepas tu masih menangis..Its still stuck..By this time the whole of my family including Izad dah masuk bilik..They cus only watch as i continue with my back slaps..Bibik lak dah nangis and told me not to be too hard with the slaps..Rasa jer nak tengking Bibik waktu tu,but dat will make me more frustrated and i told myself dat at this time, i need to stay calm and focus..

We then tried to give him sumthing to drink,but Darwish refused..And he still sob..Hre looked at me and hugged me..Thats the time i nearly cant stand the tears..But i really dont want to emotionally stumble cos i need the strength to think and focus..I hugged him back and stroke his back to comfort him..Diam sikit tapi Im not sure if the candy is still stuck..

So next thing is to bring him to casualty..After i changed, Izad gtau Darwish dah muntah lagi sekali after Izad jolok tekak Darwish..I reminded Izad its not a wise to do dat as it can push the candy even further..

Anyway,waktu muntah kali kedua tu,there is no candy..So, off we went to casualty..Masuk keta,Darwish dah babbling..Dats a good sign..He even asked for his milk..Another good sign..I started singing chorus lagu Cuba by Faizal Tahir(Yup!Darwish suka chorus lagu Cuba ceta Matahari @ TV3.He will asked me to sig it over and over again..Darwish will say 'gi..gi..'meaning LAGI..)So i sang over and over again and he also keep on sayting 'Gi..' 'Gi..'..So cancel lah plan to casualty..

So me being paranoid,suruh Izad singgah jap kedai to buy ice cream dlm cup..Just to see if he can swallow..HE DID..Habis 1 whole cup tak sampai 5 minute..

This is definitely a day full of lesson for me..

• Dont give hard candy to our child unsupervise though he can bite and chew
• Revise on my First Aid Skill especially now that i have my own family..Anything can happen(Nauzubillah)

Here are some lesson on back slaps.. Got it from www.benekeith.com
If a baby younger than 1 year is choking:

• Put the baby facedown on your forearm so the baby’s head is lower than his or her chest.
  
• Support the baby’s head in your palm, against your thigh. Don’t cover the baby’s mouth or twist his or her neck.
  
• Use the heel of one hand to give up to 5 back slaps between the baby’s shoulder blades. See Illustration C.
  
• If the object does not pop out, support the baby’s head and turn him or her faceup on your thigh. Keep the baby’s head lower than his or her body.
  
• Place 2 or 3 fingers just below the nipple line on the baby’s breastbone and give 5 quick chest thrusts (same position as chest compressions in CPR for a baby). See Illustration D.
  
• Look for an object in the baby’s mouth. If you can see one, remove it. Then give 2 rescue breaths. To give rescue breaths:
  
  • Place one hand on the baby’s forehead, and tilt the baby’s chin up to keep the airway open.
    
  • Then place your mouth over the baby’s mouth and nose and slowly blow air in until the baby’s chest rises.
    
  • Between breaths, remove your mouth, take a breath, and watch for the baby’s chest to fall.
  • 
    
    
• If the object does not come out with these steps, call 911 or other emergency services.
  
• Continue with back slaps, chest thrusts, looking for the object, and rescue breaths until the baby coughs up the object and starts breathing on his or her own, or until helps arrives.

Here are some info on Heimlich maneuver..Grabbed from this link

Performing first aid for a choking child is very similar to an adult. If the child does not clearly grab their throat other danger signs for a child and an adult include:

• Inability to speak
• Weak, ineffective coughing
• Noisy breathing or high-pitched sounds while inhaling
• Difficulty breathing
• Bluish skin color
• Loss of consciousness if blockage is not cleared

1. Stand behind the child and wrap your arms around the child’s waist.

2. Make a fist with one hand. Place the thumb side of your fist just above the child’s navel, well below the breastbone.

3. Grasp the fist with your hand.

4. Make quick, upward and inward thrusts with your fists.

5. Continue thrusts until the object is dislodged or the child loses consciousness.

If the child becomes unconscious, lower child to the floor, call 911, and begin CPR. If you see the object blocking the airway, try to remove it.
