Pregnant with my son I had to have an appendectomy in my first trimester and by my second I had gallbladder sludge (like sand basically just tons and tons of tiny little stones) so bad that my gallbladder needed removed because I had already had 1 stomach surgery pregnant they waited it out until I had baby boy and I had it removed. I know it hurts and it's super annoying especially when you're pregnant best I can tell you is bland bland bland nothing fatty/greasy no chocolate nothing acidic NOTHING SPICY!! Good luck!

Around 5 weeks ago, I had an ultrasound a week later that showed some bigger stones but I haven't had anymore symptoms.

I've got them, it got really bad after my second bub, I was being hospitalized for attacks as I couldn't manage the pain at home. My dr had just about talked me into surgery when a paramedic told me to google "gallbladder cleanse" I did and I did the cleanse, which involved drinking epsom salt water and a mixture of grapefruit juice and olive oil. It worked really well and hundreds of stones (gravel) came out. A week later I found out I  was 5 weeks pregnant with number 3. I'm now   33 weeks and I've had one very mild attack  aroun

I had gallstones with my first baby xxxx its quite common and although painful you really have no need to be worried xxxx once I had my baby girl and she was 8 weeks old they took them out xxxx I am sure you will be ok honey xxxx ohhhhhh and if its all confirmed just stay away from full fat foods ie cheese cream full fat milk etc xxxx
