Hi Jen,
My daughter Lexi had a meconeum ileus blockage at birth. Her intestines had twisted, died, and ruptured. She underwent a 3 hours surgery the day she was born, where the doctors cleaned her out and removed 75% of her small intestines. She did however keep her ileocecal valve. Lexi had an ostomy bag for about 3 months before they did her reinastimosis. At age 15 months old they did a small bowell follow through study and at that time she had grown back almost all of her intestines. I guess this was because of her age. They said when she started growing and eating that this would happen. she has no problems due to short gut now. Just gi probs that come with CF.
