"Rosanna started screaming and crying and shouting for help. She dropped to her knees."

However, Rosanna quickly laid Savannah on her side and tilted her head. Antony continued: I"f she hadn't, she could have choked. Then we stripped her down as she was so hot.

"It was awful seeing our baby like that. We felt helpless. It was one of the scariest moments of my life. We really thought we were losing her. Rosanna was begging Savannah to stay with us.

"The fit must have lasted for 10 minutes but it seemed like an eternity."

Savannah was rushed to hospital and doctors told them she had a virus which made her temperature shoot up and caused her to have a fit called a febrile convulsion.
"It was horrible seeing her like that. We felt helpless, but the hospital staff were all lovely.

"We were lucky,. We knew a little, but if the doctor hadn't been there I don't know what we would have done.

"We are definitely going to go on a baby first aid course now. We don't ever want to be in that position again."
