From Giulia Thornton: Hi Im looking for some advise/suggestions! My 16month old tubie has been given the all clear to start eating by mouth with no restrictions after he had his cleft palate repaired! Hes very interested in food and tries a little bit of everything, drinks plenty of water during the day by sippy cup but hates milk. Im finding it very overwhelming! Im always questioning myself if what he ate was enough?do I still supplement with gtube? was it enough water? Since he started eating he seems to be more satisfied and is happy with just 4 4oz pediasure gtube feeds a day verses 5 5oz feeds a day. Were waiting for approval from the insurance to start ot but in the meantime his pediatrician is ok with us cutting down his pediasure intake to make him more hungry... Im finding this all transitioning overwhelming and would love to hear other peoples experiences and tips! PLEASE!
