Sadie Robertson offered a critical update on her baby daughter Kit’s condition after the kid choked and stopped respiration.
“I’m currently walking through the waves of hysteria from the trauma of the situation, and the immense gratitude for the miracle of Kit’s full recovery and God’s undeniable hand on this example,” Robertson, 28, revealed via Instagram on Saturday, April 11. “I’ve been off social media and having my family and amazing team help me on here for a while while I work on having a sound mind.”
The Duck Dynasty star then offered a full explanation of why she has been away from Instagram in recent days, adding that her experience with Kit was “hard to discuss in my real life, much less on social media.”
“Kit was sitting in her high chair this week, eating a snack while I used to be ending up dinner prep, when she began to choke. Inside seconds, you can tell the severity of the situation. My mom pulled her from the high chair and placed my girl into my arms just as she stopped respiration,” she recalled. “Everyone went into motion and into prayer. Mom called 911, I began CPR, and everybody began to wish out loud and move the opposite kids downstairs.”
Robertson described herself as someone who “likes to be prepared for all situations,” so she’d previously watched videos on administering CPR “while hoping and praying I might never need to use this information.”
“I can only explain it now like my body just knew what to do. I felt God’s Spirit guiding me, partnering with me in what I had learned and seen. I remember saying out loud, ‘what do I do?’ after which immediately began doing it and declaring life,” she recalled.
The truth star went on, “After following protocol for a baby choking and doing CPR, Kit miraculously coughed and started to breathe, just because the paramedics arrived… it was truly terrifying, but God. I rode behind the ambulance with my girl, still afraid, but praising God.”
Kit is the youngest of three daughters that Robertson shares along with her husband, Christian Huff, whom she wed in 2019. (The couple are also parents to Honey James Huff, 4, and Haven Belle Huff, 2. Kit arrived in August 2025.)
Robertson shared that Kit ultimately made a full recovery after spending one night in an area hospital.
“Christian drove behind [us to the hospital], following us, and told me there was a rainbow over the ambulance the entire way there😭🌈,” she wrote. “We stayed the night for statement, but she charmed the nurses just a couple of hours later and is now perfectly healthy, completely happy, and brightening everyone’s day!”
Robertson accompanied the post with a video of Kit laying peacefully on her lap, calling her child’s survival a “miracle.”
The “WHOA, That’s Good podcast” host has often spoken through the years about how motherhood fundamentally modified her.
Sadie Robertson Huff and her husband, Christian Huff, opened up about being robbed during a recent family trip. “It’s so sad too because we had our automotive seats and strollers and diaper bag in [a car that was robbed],” Sadie, 28, revealed on her “WHOA That’s Good Podcast” on Tuesday, July 22. “In fact, they […]
“I met someone today who has seen my messages and he or she said ever because you became a mom you only seem ‘settled.’ She can be correct,” Robertson wrote via Instagram in 2024. “Since becoming a mom I don’t feel that I would like to prove anything to the world … or perhaps just my idea of ‘the world’ modified. the world was everyone outside of my home … now it’s those in it.”
More recently, Robertson confirmed on her podcast in March that she and Huff are in no rush to have their fourth child.
“We’re not planning on having a fourth child anytime soon. Ideally, we’re going to present it a whole lot of space in between,” Robertson told her listeners. “I might love a while to heal my body and in addition just benefit from the stage we’re in, but we’d like to in the future have one other baby.”
