So Liam had a g-tube placed when he had his surgery. They told us it would be switched to a button about 4 weeks after surgery. The Dr. here in Ut. said it had to be 8 weeks, so 9 weeks it was. I was so anxious to get it out. I heard horror stories of g-tubes falling out and having to be surgically replaced. So, I was so excited to get it. The tube was 2 feet long before and we had to pin it to his diaper and stuff it into his onesie. Now you can see that the little button is so much better. The top opens up and we connect his other tubing to it every night at 8 and take it off at 8 in the morning. We can get it wet and pretty much act like it isn't even there. It is soooo nice.
