    1. Make your child sleep on her tummy on your lap.

    2. Hold the jaw of your child with one hand to support the head.

    3. Now using the heel of your free hand, deliver five quick slaps between the shoulder blades.

    4. If the child still is not able to breathe, try chest thrusts, that is, while holding your baby, turn his face up. Place two fingers in the middle of his chest and give five thrusts. 
     
    5. Repeat with back blows and chest thrusts until the object is visible and you can remove it.
