Answers: My six days old son is in NICU and having trouble swallowing, docs talk

Wiedrich from Marston, North Carolina (Contact Member) -

Through his stomach. I have no idea how that works and for how long will my son be on it. Today the ENT came and performed a endoscopy on him and said that his left vocal cord has a gap which is making it hard for him to swallow. He said that is the vocal cords don't open and close properly, it's hard to swallow. He also said this is something that usually resolves on it's own and as of now, there is no surgical procedure for it. He didn't give us a time though he said it might get better in a month or it could take time, HOW MUCH TIME? he didn't say, has anyone gone through this or something similar or can anyone tell me something about this feeding tube they will be inserting in his tummy, like how, where and how will it work, is it syringe feeding or will i have to have a pump in his nursery? And what does this tube look like from the outside? Is it something that will need dressing? Any information and thoughts?
