Hi I have two children that are tube fed and they have nutrica flowcare machines and back packs. Nutrica also do a teddy back pack for younger children. You will need to ask your dietician to order you a back pack. We also use to use abbotts who also have two sizes of back packs. Depending on what machione you have as some can be clamped onto a pushchair. There is no reason to be house bound whilst on a tube feed.  one of my sons has been tube fed for 6 and half years and even when he is on constant feeds it does not stop him from doing anything he even plays football whilst on his feed.

all the best Ruby,

Michelle mum to three children with EE,EC,ED two with G-Pegs .
