Yeah some will. Have eit and some won't. Since the stomach is a negative pressure area,the liquid in it will rise up into any opening sorta like water seeks an outlet anywhere in the ground. The g tube is an outlet so the fluid in your stomach seeks any available opening to rise . It is kinda wonky to think about,lol. But it is just fine.
