Cramps?

[shuhnaynuh 142]

I'm on week 2 and "creamy" liquids.... Problem is I can't seem to tolerate any sort of creamy soup..? Any other suggestions of something to eat at this point? I can take pudding no problem and even watery oatmeal (dr ok'd that) but no potato or broccoli or any type of cream soup- it makes my stomach cramp sooo bad, like I swallowed razors or something (sorry, I know thats harsh, but the pains suck!) my dr wants me on soft food next week and I just don't see it happening.... Any ideas?

Just go with what you're tummy will tolerate. You're still swollen. It took me quite a while to tolerate some things I was OK'd for. Try those things next week. It may be tolerated then. Don't worry about it!!! Get you're fluids and Proteins in. Can you tolerate greek yougurt or any light yougurts without fruits added?

A lot of folks have issues with milk products early out. You may be one of them. Just try non-cream based things for awhile.

I pureed ham and lentil Soup. Also, chicken veggie.

It worked for me.

Yep all yogurts and puddings are fine, pretty much anything cold is okay, I may try to purée some chicken based soups-- thanks for the idea
