I am trying to convince myself that a feeding tube is just a tool, and not a symbol of my failure to get her to eat the “right way”.
It isn’t really a fact that I’ve fully integrated into my thinking yet, but I am working on it. Certainly, it is more important that she get the damn hydration and nutrition she needs to thrive, than for me to feed some personal ego issue.
I can always give her extra cuddle time to make sure she doesn’t miss out on the social stimulation aspects of nursing/bottle feeding.
