I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. This tube will be set to suction and will drain out brownish colored stomach acid. When it runs from brown to light green to clear, this is an indication that things are moving through the stomach and feedings may be possible. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
