Baby feeding tube (nasogastric or NG tube) is a thin, flexible tube placed through mouth or nose into the stomach. It's used as temporary support when baby can't suck, has swallowing difficulty, or isn't getting enough nutrition.
This is a medical decision — placed in hospital and only done by doctor or medical staff. The reason could be premature birth, developmental issue, mouth or sucking problems, or long-term illness.
If your doctor recommended it, you must ask the pediatric gastroenterology or neonatology nurse about placement purpose, care, and home use details.
