Santi's Homecoming
/On 4/12/12, after 20 days in the hospital, we finally got to bring our baby boy home!
Exciting? YES! Scary? OMG YES! Knowing that this little guys life is literally in our hands is so intense. More so than bringing home a healthy newborn. We have to make sure he's getting enough oxygen, enough food and that his sats (blood oxygen saturation) stay within his normal range (75%-85%). We were sent home with O2 tanks and a Pulse Ox monitor. He is on .25 of a liter of oxygen continuously and we check his sats 3 times a day.
When we told Santi he was coming home he was like, "oh my gosh you guys! Are you serious?!" Abe made a shirt to commemorate the special day.
We can't get enough kisses
