Today Ayinde is back to himself. I’m so happy to see my baby smiling, playing, cooing, and slobbering. We almost went home last night but his oxygen saturation rates kept dropping below 90% while he was sleeping. The cut off rate is 90%. So today we are watching him while he sleeps to see if he can maintain it at 90%. Pneumonia causes his airways to become inflamed and swell. Coupled with the mucous, it makes it difficult for him to properly circulate oxygen throughout his body. But I’m confident that he will pull through today. I’ve not left his side or the hospital room since Saturday – 5 days! Eric says he doesn’t know how I have been able to stay in one room for so long. Hey, that’s what mommas do. There’s no mountain I wouldn’t climb and no ocean I wouldn’t swim for my babies. I’ve been spending my time praying, resting, breastfeeding, watching my baby, writing, reading, thinking, watching The Secret and enjoying my favorite shows on HGTV and the Food Network. We were discharged at 10:00 p.m. Praise God! Hallelujah! Yebo! Amen!
