Baby, 8 months, almost dies choking on BONE found in Heinz spaghetti bolognese Baby girl Cydney started turning blue after gagging on spaghetti dish Mother Kirsty Austin, 36, from Birmingham, dislodged bone her throat Heinz say they are carrying out a full investigation into the incident A horrified mother spoke of her fury after her eight-month-old daughter almost died choking on a piece of jagged bone found in a jar of Heinz baby food. Shocked Kirsty Austin, 36, from Birmingham, leapt into action to save the life of Cydney, eight months, after she got the inch-long piece of bone lodged in the back of her throat. The mother-of-three was feeding her youngest child a dinner of Heinz spaghetti bolognese for babies when the infant began gagging after one mouthful. Kirsty Austin said she was shocked when her eight-month old daughter Cydney started choking As her daughter turned blue, quick-thinking Kirsty managed to pluck the inch-long bone from the child's airway, by putting her finger down her throat and flicking it out. After overcoming the shock, the full-time mother called food giant Heinz to complain. The brand have since confirmed they are conducting a full investigation. Kirsty said she believes her daughter was just moments from death. She fumed: 'If I hadn't acted as quick as I did she would have choked to death.' It was when Kirsty was feeding her daughter Heinz baby food that Cydney gagged and started turning blue She said: 'I have only just started feeding her mushed-up food, so when she gagged at first I thought it was because she was getting used to the difference. 'When I realised it was a bone I was in shock, I really couldn't believe it. I am angry, this shouldn't have happened, she was very frightened and so was I' 'But when I gave her a second mouthful I knew something wasn't right. She was gurgling and gagging at the same time, I thought she had a bit of food stuck in her throat. Kirsty said that she really started to panic when Cydney started to turn blue. 'She was really struggling to breathe,' said Kirsty. I put my finger in her mouth and flicked what I thought was food out and onto her tongue before picking it out of her mouth. I am angry, this shouldn't have happened, she was very frightened and so was I.' Kirsty says that she flicked the food out of her daughter's mouth - and found an inch-long piece of bone Kirsty said that when she called Heinz to complain, 'they didn't seem bothered, they just casually said to send the bone to them'. 'I want an apology from them, I haven't had that, they have just said they are investigating, it simply isn't good enough' She continued: 'At first, I didn't want to because my husband Scott said they might just say they haven't received it. Although eventually I did and they said they had since sent it to their lab for testing. Said Kirsty: 'I want an apology from them, I haven't had that, they have just said they are investigating, it simply isn't good enough. This has turned me off their product, I really don't want to buy it again after what happened. Now, whenever I am feeding her I am having to check there is nothing harmful inside. Little Cydney has now recovered from her ordeal, thanks to the quick reactions of her mother Kirsty From now on I may start making the meals myself. If you can't trust apparently reputable companies like Heinz, who can you rely on? 'It was such a scary experience and I wouldn't wish it upon any parent. 'I nearly lost my child over something like this, and something needs to be done to make sure it doesn't happen again. Heinz confirmed they will be launching a full investigation into how the bone came to be found in the Mum's Own Recipe Spaghetti Bolognese jar. A spokesman said: 'The quality and purity of our baby foods is always our first priority and so we were sorry to hear about Kirsty's experience. Great care and attention is given to every aspect of preparing our foods, from sorting and screening of ingredients to the stringent precautions and exacting standards adhered to during manufacture. This is an isolated complaint and we are keen to carry out a full investigation.
