A mom and dad in the Bronx are facing criminal charges after their baby was found with cocaine in his system, police said Monday.

The baby was found unresponsive in bed with his sleeping father in their East 166th Street apartment, cops said.

The mom, who made the discovery, tried to revive the boy and called 911 just before 1 a.m. when he didn’t respond, police said.

EMS revived the infant, identified as Khobe Moreno, with Narcan and rushed him to Bronx Lebanon Hospital, according to cops.

He is expected to survive.

The parents, Octavia Avery and Maximo Moreno, both 36, were charged with reckless endangerment and acting in a manner injurious to a child after cocaine turned up in the child’s system, police said.

Both are due in court on Oct. 20, according to court records.
