I thought I would start this section with Peanut, my TAG. Although not hampered with an obvious problem, he still is a 'special' baby. He was born with a malform mucous membrane and his nasal cavity can not drain down his throat as is 'normal'. So, as you can see in the picture, he has a runny nose all the time. I have to clean it every couple of hours and flush it every other day. He came to my with three infections so he has come a long way. I can't wait until he reaches maturity. Wiping the nose of a hormonal TAG has got to be fun! NOT

Your right Cynthia that would be a lot of work!

Is Peanut good about it Kelly, like is it apart of his everyday world or does he throw a fit each time??

Peanut is like any normal kid, sometimes he does just fine and I can hold up a tissue and say nose wipe and he sits still and lets me wipe. Other times he just sees the tissue in my hand and he goes wild! LOL He does not like the flushing at all, but does tolerate it OK once I have his head pinned between two fingers. But getting that head pinned can sometimes be a bit nerve racking!
