hi Jenn. Its very normal to be up and down , cracked ribs can happen as they spread the ribs to do the op. They are very uncomfortable. Maybe eating tiny little meals throughout the day, like grazing. a couple of crackers and cheese , some mash with gravy, vegetables and cheese an egg cup full or a little teaplate size portion at a time. His gut is like a todedler and needs to relearn how to digest. Also chewing it well helps it might. Calm things down a bit. Whatever he fancies, as long as it has calories in it. Good luck
