I’m a pediatric ER nurse and if she looks like that- I would recommend going in. or have your pediatrician write an albuterol prescription so you can manage better at home. 89-91% and tummy breathing like that requires a lot of energy and kids can tire out from that kind of respiratory distress. that oxygen is too low for my liking while awake but having the meds at home is gold ❤️ glad she’s okay💕 prayers! 🙏🏼

Blakely could have asthma. Might need a nebulizer at home. That way you stay ahead of her breathing. It can keep you from having to go back to the hospital. Be well Blakely. Hang in there Mom and Dad.

Rachel honestly I don't mean to tell you what to do, but I'm a mama too. Granted my daughter is older, but she was perfectly healthy and tell she was about three and a half. Then out of the blue she had these intermittent breathing problems. Sometimes they were so severe she would turn Blue and Gray! We took her to a pulmonologist and found out she was asthmatic. I would take Blakely to a child pulmonologist to get lung function tests done. They won't hurt her they're just annoying. But if she has asthma or some other pulmonary disease like chronic bronchitis or whatever, you want to kick it in the butt early. Then when her breathing problems get all under control, the key is prevention. There's something called a peak flow monitor that you use. Just a little tiny device that she blows into and you know what her base peak flow is. When see her flows start going down, then you know to act before things get bad. Good luck Rachel and Merry Christmas

Awe. Feel better, Blakely! Hunter broke my heart talking about the ptsd, which is VERY real, especially with a medically complex kiddo. Hugs and prayers for wellness, comfort, and peace of mind for the entire House of Hughes! ❤

Please read this Rachel

I completely understand what you guys are going through. When our son spent a whole month at the hospital and now it's been 5 years to this day every time he gets sick I check his oxygen. You guys are amazing parents. I get so much inspiration from you guys since we have 3 under 5 and one special needs. She's the sweetest little girl singing and dancing. So cute. Hoping for fast recovery it's not fun getting sick.

Aww poor girl as a Respiratory Therapist, I wpuld also recommend looking into getting a "peak expiratory flow meter" to trend Blakelys respiratory muscle strength and help notice any asthmatic patterns by seeing how hard she can blow out. This can help families trend their childs normal and compare it to when she is not well and be a warning sign/diagnostic tool to know when take her to ER.

Kate looks great at 10:00 at night!!! Prayers for little Blakely.❤

RN basics: cool mist humidifier, albuterol nebulizer at home, see her primary care or pediatrician for a full evaluation. At this point, these constant ER visits are necessary, but they indicate mismanagement medically (by a professional). She might need to be on long term meds for her lungs (one of the theophylline derivatives) with breakthrough specific instructions for home management. Panicking won't happen as often if you have clear medical guidelines. We went through this with our eldest and he outgrew it by 7 years old, but even his primary care admitted that his management was perfect--and for that we saw a pediatric specialist. He was on somophylline meds for 4 years, and only had issues directly after a cold, at which time we managed with albuterol neb and cool mist humidifier plus Tylenol/Advil for fever. It doesn't take a professional to see she's having intermittent retractions (abdominal breathing) with her low sats.

Prayers for sweet Blakely!! ❤

Awww poor Blakey I hope your feeling okay! Keeping you in my prayers! Love you ❤❤❤❤❤

Its ok to be paranoid a bit after a health scare as parents with your children. You guys are amazing. And god blessed you with such an amazing fanily support system. Beautiful. God bless your husbands brother and his wife. ❤ as well as your little ones and you and hubby.

I don’t blame you on ptsd. I’m glad you guys are so on it.

I understand, I have asthma and it's scary as an adult much scarier as a child 🙏🙏 for a speedy recovery

When my children were little I felt the same as you Hunter. My anxiety would be so elevated, I would always make a trip to the ER. The nurses knew me by name I was in there so much. It's so hard not to panic!

Oh my goodness poor sweetheart i am so glad that she is ok she is brave like Beckham

Prayers for sweet sweet Blakely . Blakely & Beckham are so adorable & sweet .

That pink dress on Blakely is so adorable ❤

Wow! Hunters arm tattoo is amazing!

Do you guys have a albuterol nebulizer? you should really look into getting one, especially in the winter when children get sick a lot more and often. The dr can also prescribe a steroid if her breathing doesn’t improve that you can add to it, to help the bronchial from inflammation and spasms, allowing her to breath deeper and fully. Especially with hunter Having PTS from her sick last time. Differently something you should bring up to her pediatrician. This allows you to be able to try things at home before having to rush to urgent care or ER. ❤

I’m really worried about her, and the long term impact on her lung function from all the damage. Please get good medicine and always see the doctor asap. Prayers 🙏

blakely is so adorable i am so glad she is doing well

We r praying for Blakely and your emtire family. I know this struggle all to well.😢. ❤

Can't wait to see the new vlog and hope you guys have a great Tuesday afternoon and evening with the kids and hope Blakely feels better soon and praying for her.

Blakely is the cutest, I love her spunk, she has the biggest personality for a tiny human. My sister has a lung disorder so understand the medical anxiety.

👏great profomance Blakely 👏 Glad shes feeling better

I would love to see a what I got my kids for Christmas video if you celebrate Christmas and a stocking video

Omgoodness Blakely in her dress singing 🎶 it’s the best 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

Feel Better Soon To Her And Pain Go Away 🙏🔜😭😔😞

I am so happy that Blakely is doing better.❤❤️💙💙

I am glad she ding better. She adorable 🥰 ❤

Glad Blakey is feeling better. Your great parents God Bless your beautiful family.

Every year around this time of year. I end up on an inhaler we couldn’t figure out why . It turned out to be asthma due to the weather change.

I’m extra paranoid because my youngest is a heart baby, but retractions mixed with a 91 oxygen saturation would worry me.

Hope your daugther is feeling Better

Oh my goodness Beckham love it when you smile sweetheart you are gorgeous like your sister

Praying are out there for Blakely💌💖

Love y’all bunches ❤❤❤❤🐶

She may need an albuterol inhaler and if that doesn't help a nebulizer. I'm honestly surprised you weren't sent home with any of these after her hospital stay.

Never wait to go to the doctor. A family friend nurse is great but please take the kid to the doctor. Your taking a big risk. My daughter had breathing issues ended up being Leukemia. Not to scare you but please dont take risks.

feel better blakely

Blakely is going to look just like her auntie Katie when she grows up - hope she feels better

If her oxygen saturation is only 89% while at rest, she needs to be seen for a breathing treatment. Clearly, she is not getting adequate oxygen. Please see a medical professional for evaluation rather than a family member for the best long-term treatment plan for Blakely. Oxygenation at 89% is too low for children or adults!

And no one mentions the dog dander. Doesn't matter how clean you are, you live with a dog, it's there. Always. Have her checked for allergies as well.

❤❤❤❤

Do you think Blakely has asthma?

Have you tried to use inhaler on Blakely

Her steroids are likely about out of her system and that is a time when symptoms show their ugly faces again..... Sometimes it takes a few courses of the steroids...taking into account the possibility of recurring symptoms..... Had one....seemed we had about 3 cycles on one of ours..... Hyper, crazy steroid kid....then a few nice weeks....then back to symptoms ( never as bad as the prior symptoms )....rinse and repeat! You two are SUCH good , attentive parents.... Hang in there.

Could she be allergic to dog dander?...Hunter you sound a little stuffy yourself...Hope you and Blakely are feeling better soon....Auntie Kate to the rescue..😊.

You can try an inhaler for her ❤

Is Auntie Kate a pediatric nurse?

Could it be an allergic reaction to something in the house? Or something new she is eating.

I am not wanting more kids. But , I think it will help with my heavy cycle etc 😊

I need to get this it’s very beautiful.

How do you keep your house so clean?

She needs a breathing treatment machine for her home period!!! Take her to her doctor!!!! Why would u let her suffer w asthma u have insurance !! My son almost died and he was the same age as yr kid!!! Take her ASAP

allergy?

😔💔🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Put her outside cold it will help her breath or take her back to hospital 🏥 feel better soon

Ok I’m sorry but my son has asthma!!! She needs a breathing treatment !!!!

What's potentially wrong with Blakely

Hello thanks for All amazing awesome vlogs I really trust your son get better real soon Could I please say all your sons best amazing awesome big brothers ever and all your daughters best friend ever and all your sons best amazing awesome little brothers ever and all your daughters best amazing awesome little sisters ever could I please be all your sons best friend ever and all your daughters best friend ever and all your family best friend ever

It's obvious that Blakely is possibly having the same issues as her father had when he was a child. So I would imagine that you're in touch with her doctor about this issue. I'm very concerned for her. And it upsets me.

Why would you not just look after it your self as parents... one day people are not going to be there .dont depend on everyone else...

under the shirt please!

lol!!!!! Blakley you are the best singer dancer! Beckham you are adorable
