                    I had mine out when I was 13. It was no picnic, I tell ya.


                    I remember eating bananas that were mashed, I loved them.


                    Ice cubes are good too. Oh and also clear broth soup that's cooled.

                        The hospital or physician will provide a list of foods for the child.  You don't need to ask a bunch of strangers.
