Listen "Feeding Tubes 101 (with a Side of Mom Grit)"
Episode Synopsis
Feeding tubes can feel like a whole new world — complete with medical jargon, equipment, and a steep learning curve. In this episode, we’re breaking it all down with Feeding Tubes 101: tackling myths vs. facts, explaining the common vocabulary (like G-tube, bolus, venting, and extension sets), and sharing our own real-life experiences as medical moms navigating tube feeding. We also talk about the emotional side of tube feeding — from grief and guilt to relief and growth — and highlight some of the products and tools that have actually made life easier (hello, tubie pads and insulated feeding pump backpacks). Whether you're just starting out or deep in the tube life, this episode is your no-shame, no-pressure, real-talk guide to feeding with love — just through a different route.
