According to StorkNet.com, the oxygen (O2) saturation in a healthy baby should be between 93 and 100 percent during sleep. However, in most cases, an oxygen saturation above 90 percent is considered satisfactory. Anything below 90 percent would indicate a health problem.
Keep in mind that every baby has different health standards and requirements. StorkNet.com acknowledges that "the ideal oxygen saturation is not the same for every baby." While some babies might need an O2 saturation of 98 to 100 percent while sleeping, other babies might be considered healthy at 85 to 90 percent.
The baby's doctor will determine the proper oxygen saturation level for the baby, depending on the environment and any health conditions that might be present. However, a typical O2 saturation for a baby during sleep is between 90 and 100 percent.
