Glad to hear the food thing does take some time I just can't wait to be on solids. But loving crackers on pureed stage as at least I'm crunching something lol. I too am feeling the lack of energy and often going dizzy. Hopefully we will be fighting fit soon and have an abundance of energy x x x

Not sure if I get crackers on pureed stage. I'll have to ask when I go to my 2 week follow up. For now, I'm happy to have something other than clear liquid
