Hi hun . . . yes sounds about right - if you are taking it slow and chewing then that is fine xx

Every one is different, as long as u have no pain etc u should be fine.... Take it slow and chew chew chew hard I know with soup but u have to mimic it xxx I got told to wait after every spoon full but different providers tell u different things xxx

Thanks. Am on the purred stage but havin veggie soup (with veg and small bits of potato in). Can eat soup and drink fine. Have no problem with that gettin down but the pureed food isn't as easy! Going down ok but very gassy etc afterwards and completely full for hours! Struggling to get the 7 'meals' I've been told to have down so going to switch back to soup for a while as I know I can manage that.

I'm the same 4 weeks out. I can easily down a can of soup as long as it's not chunky. I'm pretty active now so I'm not too bothered by that but I make sure not to have more than one soup per day. The pureed food goes down a lot slower though and 2 spoonfuls is more than enough. Today I had some mashed up fish fingers to increase my protein and they were gorgeous. Had to eat them very slowly though.
