Stomach pain?
Hi, I’m currently 33 weeks and counting. But as of yesterday evening I noticed when I touch my belly about 2-3 inches top left of my belly button I’m having bruise like pain. Baby is moving fine , I’m constipated the past few days. And have been drinking plenty of water. Also the top part of my stomach about the same area has been hurting when I lay on my sides left and right . I have to turn angled a little with pillows behind my back so it hurts less and I’m not laying on by back. First pregnancy , I have an appointment 6 days from now . Should I tell my doctor or just wait ? Trying not to over think.

Hi! Please know that this could be your gallbladder! I had a similar pain with my first and ended up having to get it removed after he was born. It is super common to have to get a gallbladder removed after the change in hormones from pregnancy. It could also be indigestion/ trapped gas

Pain of all types unfortunately is a part of pregnancy, however I suggest calling the nurse line of your hospital if you’re really worried. You can explain it in depth and they’ll give you their opinion on what’s best to do for you and baby. This is my second and I get scared/paranoid, I call all the time and I write down so many questions for my Dr 😅. If you’re delivering at St Francis it’ll be common spirit nurse advice line, UC I’m not sure, but if you have Medicaid they also have their own nurse line number you can call. Hopes this helps momma and that it starts feeling a little better
