I'm sorry to hear tey want to put it back in and that you made need it to feed yourself. I've lost track I'm either 7 or 8 weeks out and have been cleared to eat anything but my new pouch is so fickle so I try to stock with moist chx, fish and ground turkey but I chew until its puréed. Some days are better than others. Smells make me nauseous ad so do certain foods. I can drink a little more than the baby sip but I'm still a work in progress. So each day you will get better a little more pain will subside and eventually you will begin to feel somewhat normal. Granted I still slime from time to time but I'm getting better. Just be patient. I pushed myself to move around and to get in my fluids and meds and still do to this day. Eventually we all adjust. Keep on striving and you'll do great! Best of luck to you! Oh try the small 8 ounce bottles of water or a tumbler cup so you can measure your fluids better and not feel overwhelmed. I've even started drinking more decaf tea because water doesn't taste as good as it use to but it's slowly tasting better.
