Oh it's fine, I just always try and rule out gallstones for others since the doctors just ignored me and said I had 'heartburn' when I had gallstone attacks. It wasn't until I went into ketosis and was hospitalised and they actually bothered doing tests, that they realised something was properly wrong with me. Oh the pain, it doesn't fade like labour and is much worse.
but am just overracting so don't worry yourself. When I started to describe my symptoms on BnB everyone just drew blank.
Just chill and relax
Mummylanning I read lots of books, about 5 of them (Supernanny Confident Baby Care, Doctor Spock, Contented baby book ((not a fan)) and one I can't remember the name of which had Christian undertones) and although I found them interesting and planned my routine and all on them, I didn't end up using anything I'd learnt from them. The best books I've read pre-birth have been about the aspects of parenting that interest me, The Science of Parenting, I've not long started and it seems to be good. I loved Raising Boys, and I've nearly finished Breastfeeding Older Children.
For all practical worries and basic aspects of looking after newborns, what to watch etc, I just used Doc Google and BnB, ignoring most of the advise anyone in RL gave me
Thanks for your suggestion. I actually just described the pain to my friend that it was like someone had their fist at the top of my bump and was twisting it. I did have suspected gallstones with my first pregnancy. I had eaten a bag of honey cashew nuts and really suffered after. My mum, sis and auntie have all had gallbladders out so I know I could be a candidate. This pain is not unlike it but not as severe and does goes away. Last time I was doubled over and had the pain up over my right shoulder. I was convinced it was gall sones, scan apt came through to check when I was 40 weeks preg! Sonographers eyes nearly popped out of her head when I stood up and she saw how pregnant I was. She said it would be a challenge but managed rightly scanning through my back. There was no sign of gall stones and no trace of there ever haven been but all my symptoms pointed towards it.
