Mushies Phase - Drink While Eating?

I know we aren't supposed to drink while eating when we start on solids but does anyone suggest drinking while on mushies/pureed foods? I am so scared of getting stuck (this is day 7 for me) and it's comforting to feel cold water make it's way down my stomachs (it feels like I have two, really). I'm not as worried about staying fuller longer. I am more concerned with getting actual nutrients into my body, having energy AND not getting stuck. Suggestions?

Being nervous is understandable but you really don't need to be. You can make your mushies a bit runnier by adding more liquid at the start and then reducing the liquid amount progressively.

Drinking with your meals will only push the food through faster and leaving you less satisfied.

Good luck.

You need to start eating now the way you will need to once you are on solids. The sooner you get used to not eating and drinking together the better. You are highly unlikely to get stuck at this point (if you stick to what you are supposed to be eating) so it really shouldn't be a problem.
