Here we are again! Â*Kadyn's g-tube has prolapsed for the 3rd time! Â*She just had g-tube revision on Sept 8 -but this time he is doing something different. Â*He is closing the g-tube completely so the stomach muscles can heal. He is putting in a j-tube into her small intestines for feeds and we will put her on continuous feeds at night- not sure of the amounts yet and time--overnight we were told. Â*Not sure if it will be mickey or the ext tubing..?? Â*Has anyone els had the j-tube in their kiddo? Â*She has not been herself last night or today--we knew it was prolapsing yesterday-but the she started coughing and the rn was patting her back when all of a sudden we heard a pop like a cork blast off.. You guessed it -the mickey shot against the wall next to the fireplace and splatted stoamch ooze on the wall the loveseat and the rocking chair! Â*Didn't even cry....We were hoping to wait till this wknd- but this am I was about to start her feed and give meds- and it was out about the size of her baby fist! Â* Way worse than the 2 other times....We will try to link to hte pic soon. Â*Sorry its long!
So glad to be... Kendall and Kadyn's mommy Â*-Charity
