Kelly Ripa looks back on a memorable early parenting moment: she left husband Mark Consuelos alone with their infant, prompting a surprising warning. Read on to discover the full story!

A sitter's warning that stuck

Ripa, 55, revealed in a behind-the-scenes clip from Live with Kelly and Mark that while filming in Chicago she left Mark with baby Joaquin, then about six months old. She’d arranged babysitters in eight-hour, nurse-like shifts. When she returned, the final sitter warned that Mark didn’t know where anything was and urged her not to die — a comment that left Ripa stunned and joking about the sudden realization of her own indispensability.
