Can chewy calcium get stuck 3 days post surgery?

I'm 3 days out from gastric bypass. I started my chewable multivitamin because surgeon said to as long as I wasn't nauseous. However, my calcium is the Bariatric Advantage chewy bites, and I'm afraid they'll get stuck at the bottom of my pouch where the opening to my intestines is. Should I wait until I'm on solid food to take my calcium?

Thanks!!

  • My program had me wait until my first post-op visit to start calcium; that was 2 weeks post op.
