Gall stones in pregnancy?
i feel your pain and understand it totally!!!! i had gallbladder diease with my first pregnancy.. it was awful.. i started having attacks at about 25 weeks.. i was put in the hospital every attack and given stadol and some kind of g.i. tail.. (nasty by the way).. the pain was awful.. i would vomit it would hurt so bad.. try to stay away from fatty and spicy foods.. chocolate stuff like that.. def. call ur dr. during an attack.. my daughter was born early at 34 weeks.. she was in the nicu for two weeks.. but she is almost six now.. extremely healthy.. i just couldn't handle the pain anymore and they didn't want to do the surgery while i was pregnant.. and they longer i had my gallbladder the more infection i was developing.. i had lodged stones in my liver ducts.. i developed pancreatitis..which you do not want trust me!! so they gave me shots to help speed up her lung development.. but breathing wasn't her problem when she was in the nicu.. she wasn't advanced enough to suck.. she couldn't drink from a bottle very well.. she would tire so easily.. so she was tube fed.. and it was awful.. but other than that she was completly healthy.. so don't be surprised if something happens and you deliver a little early or they do surgery while ur pregnant.. but there are safe pain treatments your dr. can do to help get you as far along as possible.. which is what you want for your baby.. but i know what your going through.. and i wish you the best!! congrats on the new bundle!!
