[quote=Anonymous]We recently had to place an NG tube in my infant daughter after she was diagnosed with failure to thrive and was not eating enough to gain appropriate weight. It looks like we may be on our way to a gtube in the next few months if things do not improve. Unfortunately, my husband and I both have to go back to work by July 1 and the daycare we have lined up isn’t experienced in dealing with feeding tubes or complex feeding issues. This is so stressful! Our doctors say that July 1 is far away as far as infant development goes but I am feeling increasingly anxious about not having childcare lined up, especially considering how tough getting childcare is in general. I’m terrified I’m going to have to quit my job. Any parents out there with experience in infant feeding tubes? How was the transition from NG tube to G tube? Any advice for navigating this new world (including how to find suitable childcare) would be appreciated! [/quote]
