Early baby dust didn't get me yet

But I am in the hospital after a killer gallbladder attack. They weren't sure when I first came in if we'd end up operating right away, or what, so that was a little scary.

Baby girl is doing just fine and I'm nowhere near spontaneous labor, so as long as I can keep up with a diet and the attacks don't come back, she should be able to keep cooking.

Happy Thursday, lol!

Fingers crossed!

How far along are you again?

36w1d with a scheduled c-section at 39w exactly. Plus, she's already somewhere near 6 pounds.

My OB is aiming to keep her in as planned and then have my gall bladder removed a month or so later.

So not great if baby comes but at a safe time. FX she bakes for 3 more weeks, you recover from your section quickly and they can do a laparoscopic gallbladder removal. 

FWIW, DH and MIL have had success with maintaining their gallbladder health with diet.

Oh, that's great to know, thanks!

Ouch! I hope the attack has subsided and you can get home and rest. Fingers crossed that it doesn’t act up anymore.

Yikes, that sounds miserable. Glad you're home safe and I hope the diet can help!
