possible kidney stones. . had anyone have this dieting pregnancy

Ok so this weird feeling i been having can possibly be kidney stones.  I'm so upset about that. I have an ultrasound apt tomorrow so they can tell me for sure. . But since I don't have a uti I'm almost certain it's what it is. . I remember thinking a few days ago what if it's kidney stones again. . Ugh anyone else have experience with this. . What if they are what's the next step can they give me medication or will they wait till i have my baby? ?

Yeah I'm hoping it's not but if I don't have a uti then why the bleeding.... And the kidney stone I would think it's in my bladder. We will see tomorrow :(

I get kidney stones each time I get pregnant. Mine are caused by the xtra calcium that I consume while taking prenatals. I normally stop getting them about 6 months after giving birth. It's annoying and super painful but I want to give my babies the nutrients they need so I continue to take them.

If the stone is big enough to pass they'll tell you to drink a ton of fluids to pass it. If it's not big enough you'll have to have emergency surgery, if it's blocking anything.  You can loose your kidney if it's not removed in time. I am a chronic sufferer of stones. 12 in 4 years. I got pregnant after I had two surgeries and I had one more to go because I have so many, he said if I become symptomatic that I would have surgery while pregnant so I don't ruin my kidney. OR I would have to wait until I have the baby to clear the rest out so I don't have future problems. I passed a kidney stone when I was 7 mo pregnant with my son and they gave me percocet for pain (about 10.) They said if you are in pain so is baby, I only took them if I had to so baby wasn't distressed.  Good luck mama.  I hope you feel better soon. I don't wish stones on my worst enemy.  They're horrible. ♡♡♡♡
