Mama B & the Boys

Boys are truth with dirt on their face, beauty with a cut on its finger, wisdom with bubble gum in its hair, and the hope of the future with a frog in its pocket.

Update on my baby boy

So yesterday we took Jaren to his well baby appointment and he is 22.8lbs and growing healthy and so so strong! Praise the Lord. After his well baby appointment, we went to Jaren's ENT ((ear, nose, and throat)) appointment. They checked his blood oxygen level and he is at 99% which is absolutely perfect! After watching the video of Jaren having one of his breathing spells/attacks they have decided that it is not obstruction that is causing this, which is a good thing. One thing that means is that his tonsils or adenoids are not whats causing the breathing problems. They looked up his nose, in his ears, and in his throat and everything looks great! So they told us, that the lungs is not what tells your body to breathe, your brain does. ((rewind for a minute: when we had to call 911 last week the EMT told us that it could possibly be Jaren having tiny seizures and this is causing his brain not to tell his lungs to breath.)) So the ENT thinks this could be the case as well. They are going to be sending Jaren to a pediatric neurologist probably a few hours away, and they will run the tests they need to find out what is going on with our little man. I have to call tomorrow to find out where the referral was sent to and call and schedule him an appointment.

This is all the update I really have for now! Just keep lifting Jesse and Jaren both up in your prayers. If its seizures it could have come from Jesse's side, and if it's something else it could come from my side. But we will be in the dark until we get to the peds neurologist to get the tests ran! We love you all!
