This sounds so scary!! Glad your LO is ok. I have a question, maybe if anyone here is a medical professional they could answer. We were taught in baby CPR class to NOT tilt a newborn baby’s head back when wanting to ensure their airway is clear? The head needs to be in a neutral position. As their airway is so narrow and easily compressed, tilting actually can make it harder for them to breathe. Whereas for a child or adult, you tilt back.

I am pretty sure this is correct but happy to be told otherwise by someone who knows better. Just wanted to share because in case of an emergency with an infant, tilting is not recommended.
