First Stuck

So - for a split second I forgot I had a new belly and shoved a piece of deli ham in my mouth. Chewed about 2 times and swallowed as I hurried to do something. Then I remembered and was like, "noooooooo!" Even asked hubby to reach down and pull it out!!

 

OMG. I thought my stomach was going to rip thru my chest like an alien. The pain was excruciating and the retching was horrible.

 

After about 30 min I made it onto chat and Crimmy and the folks told me to walk, jump up and down, and put my arms in the air. So I did - around the block. Neighbors were LOVING that I am sure.

 

But it worked!! I am still alive and no ham came UP so I am assuming it went DOWN. I am told to have pineapple juice and papaya enzyme on hand for next time.

 

PLEASE don't let there be a next time!!

 

Thanks everyone!!

I am a year out and I just had me some Papaya enzyme Great stuff it aids in digestion of proteins and stuck foods. I have it on me always. I have them in the car, in drawers, at work and next to my bed. Chew them slowly and let them melt in your mouth, they work with your saliva. As you swallow you will feel so much better. Everyone makes mistakes this is how we learn. Best wishes imaluckydog
