Sadie Robertson offered a critical update on her baby daughter Kit’s condition after the child choked and stopped breathing.
“I’m currently walking through the waves of anxiety 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 situation,” 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 some time 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 talk about in my real life, much less on social media.”
“Kit was sitting in her high chair this week, eating a snack while I was finishing up dinner prep, when she began to choke. Within seconds, you could 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 breathing,” she recalled. “Everyone went into action and into prayer. Mom called 911, I started CPR, and everyone began to pray out loud and move the other 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 would never have to use this knowledge.”
“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?’ and then immediately started doing it and declaring life,” she recalled.
The reality star went on, “After following protocol for a baby choking and doing CPR, Kit miraculously coughed and began to breathe, just as the paramedics arrived… it was truly terrifying, but God. I rode in the back of the ambulance with my girl, still afraid, but praising God.”
Kit is the youngest of three daughters that Robertson shares 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 a local hospital.
“Christian drove behind [us to the hospital], following us, and told me there was a rainbow over the ambulance the whole way there😭🌈,” she wrote. “We stayed the night for observation, but she charmed the nurses just a few hours later and is now perfectly healthy, 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 frequently spoken over the years about how motherhood fundamentally changed her.

“I met someone today who has seen my messages and she said ever since you became a mom you just seem ‘settled.’ She would be correct,” Robertson wrote via Instagram in 2024. “Since becoming a mom I don’t feel that I need to prove anything to the world … or maybe just my idea of ‘the world’ changed. the world used to be everyone outside of my home … now it’s the ones 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 give it a lot of space in between,” Robertson told her listeners. “I would love some time to heal my body and also just enjoy the stage we’re in, but we’d love to one day have another baby.”
