Sarah Herron Explains Why Babies Are On Oxygen

One fan asked Sarah Herron why the babies came home on oxygen. Sarah shared the reason with everyone.

She went on to say, “It’s not uncommon for pre-term babies to go home on oxygen where we live. They’re on a very low dose, which is basically to bring the room air to sea level for them. They should be off in a month or so.”
