Drinking

I just started pureed. Haven't ate very much though. Are we suppose to wait 30 minutes before drinking? I had to get a sip of water after I had tuna.

And after I eat I am full of anxiety!!!

      I was instructed to not drink 30 minutes before or after. Idk why some doctors say different things.

    Yes, wait 30 minutes at least before drinking (but you can drink right up until you eat- according to my Dr.) Fluids expand the food in the stomach and make it uncomfortable and possibly stretch it.

    yes. That 30 minutes after is for life (my clinic actually recommends 60 minutes after, but 30 seems to be standard)

    I was told to wait before & after too though I have been able to reduce the time at two years out. You may be able to in time too.

    A single sip to help swallow something or because of an unpleasant taste is ok but not more.
