There really isn't anything you can do about it now. Your stoma is actually large enough for the pit to pass through (if ti was not as big as a small cherry pit, we would all have an extremely difficult time getting any food down and would constantly be getting things stuck). Since you are 8 weeks out, you shouldn't still have any swelling that would prevent it from passing through the stoma into the intestine. It likely already has (especially if you have had something to drink since then) and you just don't know it.
The problem with things like rice, bread, pasta, chicken, etc, is that even after you chew it well, it can still stick together and form a glob at the bottom of your pouch and block the stoma.
