They suction their nose and mouth with a small rubber bulb. The days of smacked bottoms are over.

They dont really do that anymore, usually if even needed a little suctioning device takes out the salavia in the mouth and the baby begins to beath/cry. Remember the umbilical cord actually provides oxygen (*which is why you can have a baby in water) so the baby is quite fine at birth,,,,

they suck out the snot to make sure they are breathing. there are several tests that are done to make sure that a baby is healthy in the first hour of life outside the womb for safety.

they flick their finger against the baby's heel and aspirate fluid out of their mouth and nasal passages this usually will get a good response from the baby

If he slapped my baby I would slap his head with a golf club

No, with both of my babies they pinched their heels a little bit--just enough to get there attention!

No, they use Turkey basters and suck the goo out.
