I woke up b/c my 6 week old son was flailing against my back, but he wasn't making any noise. I picked up up and his back was arched and his head back and he was choking on his own vomit. He never made any noise, except once he finally started breathing, he would take one sharp breath and then choke again. Finally I got all the vomit out of his mouth and he began to breathe normally and then he cried and cried. If he had been in a crib, even in the same room, I would not have heard him and he would have died. But b/c he was sleeping right next to me, I felt him move in a weird way and woke up.
