I did but that was years ago at this point, and I can't remember much of it! I should take a refresher... problem is, the last course I took was over half a day! I should prioritize it though, to be on the safe side.
Did you ever take an infant CPR course?

I'm part of my medical response team at work and they trained us to both adult and infant CPR. I was trained last month and it happens annually got us.

It was part of my CPR training course when I was a babysitter/nanny. But that was years ago.
DH and I do plan to take one before we have a baby though (we are currently TTC #1)

I was required to stay up to date with HCP-level CPR and first aid while I was in school, which included a refresher once a year. It covered infant and child CPR. I just renewed again a month ago, and I'll keep my certification up to date just to be on the safe side.

I used to be a lifeguard, so yes, but I haven't done it in years! I check the book to remember the correct ratios/timing occasionally.

@Mrs. Tiger: when I took the course again last month they had changed some of those things! It threw me off a little.

I did when D was in the NICU. It was a requirement for taking him home.

Yes, but it was right before DD1 was born so I could use a refresher course, too.

Yes, I took it while pregnant with Xander. Though I've probably forgotten some things and could use a refresher.

I did when my first was an infant--my mom's group organized it for all of us. I have forgotten a ton, and should take a refresher too!

Yes, while I was pregnant. They also gave us a small poster with instructions and pictures to take home and we have it hanging up in the kitchen. Luckily we've never had to use it.
