A mother from Bristol resuscitated her baby boy four times when he stopped breathing - with the help of a 999 operator on the phone.
Driving instructor Cordelia Nolan, 25, said she was "petrified" when her 10-week premature baby, Emrys, lost his colour and turned blue.
Ms Nolan started resuscitation straight away and a cousin dialled 999 and relayed the operator's instructions.
Phone operator Jennifer Riley praised the actions of Ms Nolan.
"Without her help, Emrys would almost certainly have died before the three paramedics arrived.
