Tubie Tips by our Medical Mamas…

  • “Never be ashamed to pull over or stop somewhere to fix a pump, it refills a bag. Kids have to eat, ours are no different. If possible, for long or extended trips take a backup pump or charger.”

    – Virginia S.

  • “If you can’t book special assistance, most airports have fast track tickets to security which will make the process a lot quicker.”

    – Anna M.

  • I always carry extra everything! I prime our tubing with water and keep our formula in an insulated lunch bag with an ice pack and have plenty of syringes for flushing. I carry an extra gtube just in case.”

    – Kelsey C

  • “Make a list of all the things you need on a daily basis. I always like to make sure I have extras as well because you never know what could happen!”

    – Stacey M.
