Swallowed bath water. Help advice.

My baby was in the bath and rubbed soap in her eyes and was crying. So I quickly poured water over her to get it out of her eyes and stop her crying. Well, her mouth was open, and she's started gulping water. I've picked her up, and she was gulping for about 10 seconds. So I patted her back, but nothing came out. I am panicking about secondary drowning. Please tell me someone has gone through similar and their baby is okay?

Sounds more like she was drinking it than inhaling it. Was she coughing or anything?

No coughing, just gulping

I wouldn’t worry too much, if there was gulping like you would when you drink, then I doubt there’d be any water on the lungs to cause secondary drowning.
