It needs to go in the back of the mouth. The front is where the trachea is in chams. Red is trachea (airway). Blue is esophagus. How is she now?

she’s moving around and she’s acting normal. i just didn’t know what was happening

Just keep an eye on her, especially for signs of a respiratory infection...gaping, labored breathing, stringy saliva

How is she doing now? Is she making improvements with her MBD yet?

she’s climbing and using her tongue. it’s just that she’s not holding herself up yet. but i think she’s gonna make it unless the worst happens

You said..."she’s climbing and using her tongue. it’s just that she’s not holding herself up yet. but i think she’s gonna make it unless the worst happens"...sounds like she's making progress...muscles must be getting stronger. It will take longer for the bones to be strong again though...trunkal lifting to return, etc.
Good that she's making progress though!
