I was five when I had my first. My mom said I was staring off into space etc that's all she told besides the fact that she told me since hadn't seen one before she thought I was dying she called 911 and rode with me in the ambulance

Avaroma: why do you think I should have called 911. He wasn't choking, was breathing ...he could have just been very tired. He slept really well that night though!!! Hard to tell with a 3 yrs old.

That's why it's recommended to lie person down. Put pillows around person in case of fall or jerking around.
