[tri-med] Re: considering a g-tube-car seats


<<He seems to have positional problems in it because
his 
neck is kind of scrunched up.  He doesn't breath the
best in that 
position.  Does anyone else have this problem?>>

Faren was also having problems keeping her head
aligned in the car seat, although it did not give her
problems with breathing, she just didn't look
comfortable!  I found something at target(and I just
cannot think of the name of it)that is like a pillow
in the shape of an animal's face.  It is deeper in the
center with an edge so that her head cannot fall over
to the side, which she is better at now, but it still
helps.  I sure wish I had a a name for it, but if you
look at target in the infant section you may see what
I am talking about.  I think they are actually for
toddler car seats and they have a strap to wrap around
the seat, but we don't use the strap, we just lay it
behind Faren's head and it works good.
