Just out of curiosity---how does that pull out the tube? Our buttons are next to

the skin--don't extend out more than an inch--so I don't understand how

crawling would pull them out unless she is fed continually. Our first PEG was

a Bard and got pulled out accidently. We never had a button with a balloon

pulled out accidently, although we have had the balloon burst a few times.
