I'd give Lise a call. I have found sometimes it took longer before I could eat anything much at all after an adjustment. One thing though that you should really take note of is how much you are putting into your mouth. Maybe start with your mushies but only use a small spoon and only fill it up half. Sometimes it just takes a more gradual approach to things. Some people get irritated and the stomach swells up slightly after an adjustment so that has to ease as well. If that happens you have the stomach swelling a bit PLUS the adjustment. It just takes a bit of time is all. I had a fill in June and in all honestly it was over 6 weeks before I could get any solids down at all. I still have a bit of trouble but not enough to worry about. But I'd still give them a call, just to ease your mind.
