I've never gotten use to the tube, I just got a new one that is low profile so I find myself looking for the darn tube hanging from under my shirt!LOL I use to let my tube just hang and wear a slightly bigger and longer shirt. I never liked taping or pinning it up but that's just preference.
How are you flushing currently? I flush with two syringe full (60ml each) of warm water both pre and post feeding. It will get easier to handle with practice, I can do alot of stuff one handed now!LOL
