At or above 94 it is ok. Pulse reading better take manually. But between 60-100 it is normal.

The  normal  value of oximeter  should  be  between  95 to 100  and  pulse  should  be 72/ minutes. So both are normal of yours and your  son. If value  of  oximeter  go below  90 then  it is considered low,that time patient require oxygen.

Normal Oximeter reading is between 94 to 99. Normal Pulse rate is 62 to 100. So almost both are normal. Check manually once again for your son. It may vary.
