A member asked:
My baby slipped in bath,submerged under h2o, he coughed up the water after i pulled him out. could he have inhaled water into lungs? should i call er?

Watch: I assume he is breathing OK now ? If the baby is breathing OK and in no distress you probably just need to observe. Watch for any signs of bronchitis over the next few days. Watch for fever. If there is any question in your mind about the status of the baby then you should present to the ER.
