I see it done often, but that doesn't mean anything :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2367797 Tue, 24 Nov 2015 06:56:08 +0000 Adira 2367797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got certified before Xander was born, but since it's been over 2 years, we're technically not up to date anymore. But I still feel pretty confident that I know what to do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2367786 Tue, 24 Nov 2015 04:17:27 +0000 mrbee 2367786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was certified for infants before my first kid was born, but it's been over 6 years since then! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2367783 Tue, 24 Nov 2015 03:11:50 +0000 Boogs 2367783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My certification expired, but not too long ago so I know what I'm doing.

My work brings a company in to certify us in a variety of things and CPR is one of them. They didn't have to, but they included the infant/child training as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366434 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 20:35:05 +0000 Mrs. Tiger 2366434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lifeguarded for years and was certified but my certs have been expired for 7+ years. I reread the ratios every now and then just to be sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366424 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 20:25:28 +0000 MrsF 2366424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, but I'm also a nurse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366403 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 20:06:42 +0000 Lilbear 2366403@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been certified for the past 15 years, but I'm also a PE teacher who coaches on the side. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366402 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 20:06:28 +0000 BSB 2366402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm adult CPR certified because I was/am a part of my Medical Emergency response team at work for the past 5 years. They touched on kid and infant CPR by request. I do have a certification for the adult portion. Not sure if my certificate says I'm infant and children certified. I forget when my cert expires but since I was on mat leave during our annual CPR training, not sure if I'm still certified. </p> <p>Anyway, I watched an infant CPR video when I was in the NICU and practiced in front of nurse before the babies came home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366379 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 19:39:58 +0000 NavyRN2012 2366379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: ha, posted my response before reading everyone else's! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366378 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 19:38:57 +0000 NavyRN2012 2366378@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes.

I am certified. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366331 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 18:22:12 +0000 Bao 2366331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: oh my gosh!! Good for you for knowing that at 13. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366328 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 18:18:50 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2366328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. I got my first certification when I was 17, I renewed it a few years later when I took a job working with kids at the school district. Ever since it's been kept up to date, and will be forever now that I'm about to graduate nursing school :)<br /> At 13 years old I performed the infant heimlich maneuver while babysitting and I knew what I was doing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366325 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 18:13:00 +0000 Synchronicity 2366325@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I had to be for school and then professional registration. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366321 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 18:05:38 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2366321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took an infant CPR class but I'm not certified. If DD needed CPR I would know what to do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366320 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 18:05:15 +0000 Ash 2366320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes but I'm a nurse :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-cprfirst-aid-certified#post-2366313 Sun, 22 Nov 2015 17:44:46 +0000 Bao 2366313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm just curious how many parents are certified in CPR/First Aid. I was certified a few years back but haven't renewed it. I do know what I am doing though, as I saved LO2's life just a few months back. DH has never been certified and wasn't exactly sure what to do, and my mom doesn't know either. Two people who take care of LO's a lot. I think at least watching over a YouTube video if nothing else eases my mind, for whoever is watching my kid. </p>
