I was 21 weeks when I found out I was suffering with gallstones.  I had to go full term with my pregnancy then after I had my daughter I had my gallbladder removed.

I had my gallbladder removed when I was 18 weeks I think the safest time to do the surgery was between 18 to 23 or 26 weeks because the baby is so small and not high enough yet that they are able to work around it . You might wanna ask your doctor if you are still able to do it , I was out of work for a month after I had it because my body took so much time to heal
