Breathe Easy, Dad!

, , , , | Healthy | October 2, 2026

I was on a baby first aid course, and we were being told how to do CPR on a baby. A soon-to-be dad raises his hand to ask:

Soon-To-Be-Dad: “Are the rescue breaths sucking the air out of the baby’s mouth?”

Trainer: *After blinking a few times.* “No, you’re blowing into their mouth, not sucking out.”

Soon-To-Be-Dad: “But how can you be sure?”

Trainer: “Just do it how I showed you, and you should be good.”

His pregnant partner beside him gives him a gentle slap on the shoulders.

Pregnant Partner: “Honestly, Barry, calm down! You’re going to be a dad, not a dementor!”
