- Small travel pillow or mini pillowpet to hold against your stomach the first few days-week.

- peppermint tea, to help with gas issues

I recommend that you do not stockpile things like broths or Soups because you may decide you do not want them. I was allowed (on full liquids) yogurt without chunks or seeds, SF Jello or pudding, pureed Soups, creamed soups, etc and so I didn't use any of the broths I bought.

Also, check with your Dr to see when it is okay to takes Vitamins, etc again. Some do not want you consuming vitamins the first week.
