Hey I know this is a really old post but I found it in the search bar under "trach". My lo is 5 months and just got a trach put in on Monday (4 days ago) and he still isn't interested in nursing. Not sure if you breastfed or not but was wondering how long it took for your lo to eat by mouth after getting it done? Hope everything is a lot better and easier now for your family!

@andiryan93,

Yea well I have had ppl say that he is going to suffocate and stuff bc of it

My little brother used to cover his face when he slept. No matter how many times my mom moved the blanket he still out it in his face. He's now 16 yrs old. My daughter used to cover part of her face too. She's a happy healthy 10 month old baby girl. I don't see anything wrong with it.
