Erin - Anyone out there I have a fundo question-

How long after the fundo was your little one able to burp ?

How long after the fundo was your little one able to cough ?

When your little one retched or gagged was it intense or did it seem weak ?


Okay, that is 3 question !!!! :) Noah, has not beenable to cough yet and it's freakin me out a bit. Before he would cough right away, in fact he was coughing a bit before we left the hospital this time around but, hasn't for almost 2 weeks now. Also, when Noah gets something stuck down by the wrap his retching is so weak...it's really different this time compared to the other 3. hmmm. We go to the surgeon on Thursday now, they just called and changed it again. Just wondering inthe mean time.

(((hugs))) this time they redid Noahs espophagus, I am sure that may have something to do with his being weak and it is his fourth! I know you are worried, I am too, but I am sure he is just taking longer to heal and it isnt working yet and that is why it is weak. He has got a lot of healing to do. You poor thing!

OK, Eli couldnt cough for about 2 weeks. he cant burp and he cant vomit (he tries). His gagging/retching has always been strong. Noahs is different I am sure because of them redoing the bottom of his esophagus, his is different ((((hugs))) Hang in there! How long has it been now? I have lost track of time. And, thank you for posting on here, it looks like I have company now :D
