Guest guest Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 That is a great idea! i hadnt thought of big brothers. We have reached out through our church for help at home, but not in that way! I do try to take them to appts & shopping one on one. Our main problem is feedings w/ the kangaroo pump. When I leave her in her seat it always comes undone & makes a huge mess- so I usually have to hold her. This means the boys know I am occupied & all I can do is scream at them. They take advantage of it every time! If youve seen that show desperate housewives... I'm like the one with all the little boys.HA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 where does it come undone at? you never know one of us may have found something to help keep things together in a way you haven't yet. good luck I know with my four boys they can be quite the handful.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 Now that she is wiggly- she reaches for her tube alot from her belly- and works her way down- so the red tip of the pump bag pulls right out of her y port. When I run it down her pants she kicks it out- the port lands right at the arch of her foot. With four boys I'm sure you know my distress! They are actually really good boys- they sure do adore Sara. Thanks for the suggestions!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 have you tried using a piece of the porous medical tape right around that connection it tears easily and comes off easy yet holds it just enough at least enough for when wesley was wiggly. my boys are pretty good too but they are boys KayRena mark148@... wrote: > Now that she is wiggly- she reaches for her tube alot from her belly- > and works her way down- so the red tip of the pump bag pulls right out > of her y port.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 I will try that- I've used skin tape, and paper tape left over from her ng tube days- but it didnt come off easily. The right kind of tape is probably all I need!thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
