Welcome Mikki,
What was the reason for the G tube? Is it possible that Brendan is
aspirating as he takes from the bottle? It doesn't take much to cause
irritation in the airways which would cause a lot of congestion and coughing
as you describe. Sorry, very little help but just more questions. My Becky
never had a G tube but several of the other moms on the list may have more
answers.
