I thought my son’s breathing was weird. He was 4 days old. I couldn’t even explain to his doctor what I thought was weird, I just knew it was weird.

Took him into the pediatrician, and she did a basic look at him, watched him breathe and said he was fine, I’m just “in anxious mommy mode”.

The following day, I take him into the ER, telling them the same thing. “I don’t know what it is, but his breathing is just weird” and boom, his oxygen was 72.

He ended up staying on supplemental oxygen at home for 2 months. I was crying to one of the nurses, and he told me, “Mom instinct is real, and I’ve seen it save a lot of kid’s lives.
