Pregnabt & Tender pain on right side of stomach

[kingivan]

Hello, I guess I'll jump right into it. In 22 weeks pregnant and I have this tenderness on the right side of my stomach... It started around 4 or 5pm today, it hurts. Like if I push on down it hurts or if I roll over it hurts. It's only on the right side, given my high risk should I be worried???

aw you poor thing!! I would call and ask for pain meds...at 22 weeks there's no reason not to give you something!

[kingivan]

I didn't get any pain meds which makes it 100 times worst... And all they said was limit my fatty/ greasy  foods.. I googled it and everything to keep my baby healthy I can't or drink.... So it looks like I'm going to be in pain b/c I'm not starving my baby

[Ashelen]

ouch honey I'm sorry :-( i thought that it sounded like your gallbladder...mine's been a bit quirky this pregnancy too but nothing like you're going through.

Hope you get some relief soon..did they give you something for the pain? did they tell you what foods to eat to ease some of the symptoms? (like stay away from caffeine, foods that are high in fat or particularly starchy or sugary)

Thank god it wasn't an appendicitis, I couldn't imagine putting at risk of surgery.... However, it's my gall bladder/ gall stones, this pain is unbearable.. I can't sleep & no work tmrw via dr orders..

And trying43 hit it on the head.. They said it might be an appendicitis,  I'm waiting for the results now... I'm praying it's not Im terrified to put my unborn son at risk.

Also could be appendix also common during pregnancy.  I would definitely call your ob and see what they recommend.  Good luck.
