I went out last night, & obviously
didn't drink anything, but I felt so rough
towards the end of the night.. I get
"night sickness" as opposed to morning
sickness so I didn't think the nausea was
unusual, but I was also experiencing pain
in my upper/mid abdomen. I was driving my
friends home & the pain kept getting
worse & worse.. I was actually crying
from the pain at one point. After I'd
taken my friends home it was quite a long
drive back to my house & I didn't
think I'd make it back. But I just kept
going, & when I got in Jonny was
asleep, but my crying woke him up. He
wasn't very sympathetic.. he just kept
falling back asleep. I threw up when I got
in, but that could have been unrelated to
the pain, I don't know. I don't like
causing a fuss so I didn't wanna ring the
hospital or anything.. it was about 3am at
this point.. so I just went to bed &
tried to get some sleep. Thankfully the
pain did ease off after a while.
I know this post is a bit pointless, &
the pain can't be related to the baby, it
was far too high up.. but I was just
wondering, has anyone else experienced
anything like this? I googled it (bad
idea.. I know!) & it seems I was
having symptoms similar to those of
gallstones. The pain is still there now,
but it's nowhere near as bad as last
night.
Argh.. it was horrible, it really ruined
my night

It would be a good idea to ring up the
doctor. It could be nothing, but it could
be something. Googling symptoms is never a
good idea! Although, off the top of my
head, the first thing I thought was
'gallbladder'. But, it could be ulcer
related as well. You should be seen.
I'd ring your dr!! Pregnancy hormones can
definately cause gallstones, its quite
common. Usually its not a problem with
the pregnancy, however if you are in too
much pain they may decide to remove your
gallbladder while still pregnant.
Was is a constant pain or like 'attacks'?
Are you still feeling bad today? If you
talk to your doctor let us know what they
say!! I hope you get to feeling better!

it could be your ligaments stretching for
the baby, i know its high up, but it could
be pulling at the sides higher up for room
for the baby, i had this when i was 14
weeks pregnant, right before i went to my
first appointment with my family doctor, i
was in the shower and started feeling
dizzy, then when i got out i had to sit
down, there was a pain at my sides, and i
thought ill just stand up and stretch a
little to see if it would help, i had to
grip the side of my computer desk it was
so painful, but then it went away.
I had alot of "night sickness" too, one
time my fiance and i went to a movie and i
had to rush to the bathroom and throw up.
Another time we were out for dinner with
friends and i had to go get sick.
Hopefully its nothing serious, but let
your doctor know about what you felt the
other night, he or she may have a better
answer or guess of what it is

I'm not sure what it could be, but I hope
you feel better! I also think you should
make a fuss, and go to the doctor!
It wasn't really stabbing pains, more like
a constant ache.. but a severe one. It's
gone now, but I'm all bloated & I'm
starting to wonder if it was caused by
something I ate or something along those
lines. I get nauseous when I'm hungry but
then as soon as I start eating I get full
soooo quickly, & I soon feel all
bloated & horrible. I dunno.. my
body's just in a bit of a mess right now.
I have my first midwife appointment on
monday so I'm going to mention it to her
then.

I'm glad you are feeling better! Don't
forget to talk to the midwife about it.
It sounds kinda like gallstones, i got
them when i was pregnant with jordynne,
the pains can get soo bad! And make you
sick as well. Id ask your dr about it so
they can look at your gallbladder and
kidneys and all that when you go there.
Specially if its gallstones u dont wanna
deal with that the entire pregnancy!
Sooooo not fun.
