[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, your son is fine.

When my first child was born (Oct), the hospital staff told me to always keep a hat on her because otherwise she'd lose to much body heat.  I took them seriously, and kept the poor child in a hat nearly 24/7 (even inside our home). People laughed, but darn it, I was listening to the experts.  She is 23 now, and I have looked back and laughed for a long time.

In a few years you will laugh about this too.  Life is to short to get mad at every little thing people do that is not what we would do.[/quote]

I don't think that the hat example is comparable at all to the concerns that Op had about her son choking.

My oldest is in college and when he was little he would wake up in the middle of the night with such bad croup that we were seriously scared that his airway would completely close off and he wouldn't be able to breath.  We had to call 911 a couple of times and EMS and the doctors took it very, very seriously.  If my parents or in-laws had ever laughed at me for calling 911 or insisted that I was overreacting and that all babies get colds and they survive....I think that would have changed our relationship forever.
