Hi AliG. Can i start by asking why your DD might need a NG?

My DD Alex is now 5. She started off with an NG at birth for a week or so, then back on the NG before she was 2. By 3 she had a PEG, then a Mic-Key button.
She has just had it removed 4 months ago :D

Depending on the reason the dr wants your DD to have an Ng will totally guide my answer.

sorry i took so long to get back. She now has the tube and spent 8 days in hospital to make sure she was right with it. She is 22months old and has CF. she cant gain weight at all and they want to try and get her to as she was and is not getting her requirements through her food.
