Neocate Jr.   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #84983 of 99437 |
We just started giving our daughter, Juliet, Neocate Jr via g-tube.
The problem is that it separates out so that the bottom of
her feeding bag is watery and the top of the bag is thick. There is
no way to blend it better...we've tried. Does anyone else have this
problem and what is your solution?

Thanks, Mike B
