A young mum from Bristol saved her baby’s life four times after he stopped breathing by administering artificial resuscitation while being guided by paramedics over the phone.

Cordelia Nolan, a 25 year old driving instructor , said she was, “Petrified” when her 10-week premature baby, Emrys, lost his colour and turned blue.

Cordelia started resuscitation straight away and a cousin dialled 999 and relayed the operator’s instructions.

Cordelia managed to bring ten-week-old baby Emrys back to life four times, by pumping his chest and blowing air into his mouth.

The ordeal lasted for about ten minutes until an ambulance arrived and took Emrys to hospital. He’s now made a full recovery. A urine infection was found to be the cause of his seizure.
