Rosie,

When you say feeding tube, I'm assuming a g-tube. In that case what kind of button do you have?

There are several types, and some are a lot smaller than others. It might not be perfect (sorry), but the right button will go a long way to making it a bit easier.

Examples are the Bard which is quite flat, but has to be put in at the Dr; and the AMT mini which is a small one that looks like a Mic-Key (most common) but is a ton smaller and easier to cover.

Hope this helps,

I bought this bathing suit and it manages to cover up my button: <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www2.victoriassecret.com/commerce/onlineProductDisplay.vs?namespace=productDisplay&origin=onlineProductDisplay.jsp&event=display&prnbr=CP-207977&page=1&cgname=OSSWMOPSZZZ&rfnbr=158

I wear a lot of tops that have empire waists or camis/tanks with a sweater buttoned right where my g-tube is (I have a mic-key). Most of my tops are kinda flowy, so you can't see the button and if I'm having a big belly day, you can't see that either. Old Navy usually has some good stuff for camouflage.

I totally know what you mean though... good luck!
