Mom issues warning after baby chokes on dummy

A mom shared her horrifying story on Facebook, warning other moms to take caution if their child uses a pacifier. 

The mom says that she had just put her baby to sleep when she heard strange sounds coming from the nursery. She went to check on the little one to find her choking on a piece of her pacifier. While she managed to take the detached teat out of the baby's throat, she felt the need to warn other parents about the dangers of the item.
