Why not try a cup of warm tea? Sounds soothing to me. And yes, the broth counts as liquids.

you are so new,,,the gas is from the air they put in you during surgery so they can move around in your tummy,,, so when they close you up it gets stuck in there,,, the only thing that is gonna help with that is to walk,,, walk,,, walk you have to move that gas,,,,, anything you drink protein drinks broth water tea, popsicles its all fluids,,, and it will get easier as time goes by,,,, take your time,,, walk,,, sip,,,, repeat,,,,, take good care of yourself,,, it really does get better,,, the first week is the hardest,,,, and you are on your way to a healthier,,,happier you,,,, rest up and heal,,, take care jeani

ANY liquid counts. And chicken broth, vegetable broth, beef broth or any other broth is liquid!

As time goes by, drinking water will be much easier. It does help if it is ice water, or a warm drink.

It has been much easier. For the last two days sipping has seem to be a distant memory. I am getting so much more liquids in now!

Thanks for the reply

Have you tried drinking SF jell-o warm? If it's too sweet, add a little extra water. I usually fill my 1 cup measuring cup with ice, add water to equal 1 cup of "cold" water and the jell-o will cool faster.
