An 11-week old baby was discovered "not breathing" by his dad. Mason Sage died during the night between his parents in bed, an inquest heard.
It was his father Dom Sage who discovered the baby was not breathing at around 6.30am on the morning of September 16, 2021, with dry blood under his eye and nose, an inquest at Pontypridd Coroners’ Court was told. Mr Sage, 29, recounted to the court how he immediately woke his partner and Mason’s mother Emily Owens when he realised Mason wasn’t breathing, according to Bristol Live.
“I then opened his mouth and started breathing through his mouth and nose but no matter how hard I tried I couldn’t get any air into him,” Mr Sage said. “It was like blowing into a wall. The ambulance control room confirmed what I was doing was correct and they continued telling me what to do over the phone.”
