Answers:
It might be that she had a really slow pulse and shallow breathing.
It might also be that the cpr worked.
If someone stops breathing they could still have a very faint pulse.
When I was taking my cpr class one lady swore I was holding my breath ( I wasn't) because she did not see my chest rise and fall plus she couldn't find my pulse.
I just am that way, low pressure and shallow breather.Health Question & Answer

It means you did a good job! CPR forces blood to the brain, pumps to help "kick-start" the heart, and forces air into the lungs. And you keep doing it until paramedics arrive and take over. You didn't say why your friend needed CPR - but she was very fortunate that you were there. I'm not sure why you seem distressed that you performed an heroic act - and saved your friend's life.

Maybe because she finally got enough air to release all that water or whatever.?Health Question & Answer
