Guest guest Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 hi...my 4 year old daughter has been having difficulty lately with her first gtube feeding of the day. she receives 4-5 cans of peptamen jr. each day. most feedings are bolus. and she can tolerate a full can with an additional 1-2 oz. of water at each feeding. however, she has lately been vomiting after her first morning feeding. i have tried giving only a half of the can and then waiting a while to give her more....but she starts gagging and will throw up after the smallest amount. she is on zantac and we have been very careful to make sure she receives it every 12 hrs. not sure if this has anything to do with it? i can't figure out why she tolerates the rest of her feedings and is now having trouble with her morning? any help/ideas/advice would be greatly appreciated. thanks, bethany mom to brennan 7, palmer & anna grace (leighs) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
