Hello. We just started using a G-tube 6wks ago and are on our 3rd formula(pediacare junior, neocate junior, elecare). Our son has NCL2 late infantile, age 5 and just found out he has GURD now. Any formula suggestions or have any families tried making their own food? Never had issues with real food prior to tube, other than he never ate enough. Any suggestions are much appreciated!

My daughter does not have a G-Tube yet, but I am a member on another message board called Parent-2-Parent. It was started primarily for GI Issues I believe, but also covers many other special needs topics. There are a few threads on there talking about making your own pureed food for the G-Tube. Many of them really like it and have mentioned how much better their children tolerate the feeds and how much healthier they look. Maybe you could check that out.

I said pureed, I meant blenderized. If you search blenderized diet, I think there may be a website for it.
