baby drowns in pool behind mum and desperate child tries to alert her.

Distressing footage shows a drowning toddler frantically struggling in the water for around 90 seconds while her mum sat texting just yards away.














The girl, who was celebrating her first birthday, has been in a coma for a month and is now dependant on breathing apparatus to keep her alive. In the clip, a young boy in the pool with her can be seen trying to save the girl and get the mum's attention, but she waves him away and continues to use her phone. By the time she spotted her daughter drowning, the child was not breathing and had turned purple.

CCTV footage from the pool shows the mum playing with the boy before turning away to use her phone. The toddler, named in Chinese media as Xiao Ai, immediately flips upside down in the pool and slips out of her swim ring. She is seen struggling in the water just a few feet from her oblivious parent. The boy in the pool tries to save Xiao Ai by reaching his hands towards her, but he cannot help her and even tries putting the swim ring above her on the pool surface. She then tries to warn her mum, with the video showing him making his way to the edge of the pool and trying to get her attention. However, the annoyed parent waves him away, leaving him helpless to save his playmate. More than 90 seconds after Xiao Ai had flipped upside down, the boy finally gets the mum's attention, and she sprints over to pluck her daughter out the water. The mum, who is believed to have the surname Wu said she tried basic chest compressions on her daughter but later rushed her to the Fujian Provincial Hospital for treatment.

emergency department doctor Lin Shuqin said the child arrived without a heartbeat or breath sounds. Her face had also turned purple. Doctor Lin and colleague He Wen, who is head of paediatrics, managed to help the child regain her heartbeat using the emergency procedure, but she was unable to breathe on her own and has been comatose since. Wu said after the accident: "I wasn't paying attention for about a minute or two, and she must have fallen off her swim ring after losing balance. 
 
The manager of the kids swimming pool said their staff member was outside receiving a delivery at the time of the accident. They have offered to partially cover the girl's medical expenses said. Xiao Ai is her second child. The little boy in the video is said to be someone else's child. Earlier this week a boy in North China's Hebei province nearly died in similar circumstances after struggling in a swimming pool for two minutes. It is currently unclear if the mother is being investigated. It is also unclear if the pool is being looked into. Police are reportedly investigating.
