Has anyone ever experienced gallstones during a pregnancy?  I get verrrrry bad upper stomach pain and back pain every once ina while.  But it's not like cramps,  it feels very worse.

Some people say it's my gallstones or my gall bladder??

How far along are you? And where exaxtly is the pain?  I got gallstones and a gallbladder infection at 30 weeks. If he pain is right at the top of ur stomach (under ur boob) on the right hand side it could b gallstones. I went to the er and they did bloods to check pancreas and liver function to confirm if its gallbladder pain. There isnt much u can take painwise unfortunately.
But if u cut out all grease and fat and stick to fooda like rice, plain skinless chicken, boiled potatoes etc it REALLY helps.
Also when it flares up bad put an ice pack on.

Im 21 weeks,  it's right under my boobs and my upper back. It doesn't feel like normal cramps would feel like it feels much worse. I told my doctor about it and she's gonna schedule an ultrasound to see what it might be.
