Gallbladder surgery post op

Has anyone experienced long term symptoms after getting their gallbladder via laparoscopic surgery? I am having HORRIBLE nerve pain. My skin literally feels like it’s on fire. It hurts so so much. And i am still having a lot of internal pain. No pain where i was cut, but lots of pain around and under my belly button. It’s not even been 3 weeks but I didn’t expect to hurt this long.

Also wanted to add that the area below my stomach has been numb for 9 years bc I had a c section so ice had hardly any feeling there. Now I feel too much. 😅

I believe you shouldn't have any pains at all after surgery. I felt nothing after. Relief and once the scars got better then everything good

Now im nervous because im scheduled to have mine out Wednesday. The pain from the gallbladder attacks is terrible though!

Had mine out and never had this. But I was in a good amount of pain for several weeks. Way longer than I thought. But now everything is fine!

C SECTION SHELF!!!

Hi girls, I had an emergency c section 7 months ago, and I still have a shelf. I am 50 kilos & 5ft1 so I know for a fact I am not over weight. I train 6 days a week, I walk minimum 10k steps a day, I drink lots of water I count my calories and have a good protein intake, I do daily scar massages and I STILL have a shelf. I want to know if anyone has ever been lean and still had a shelf ???? I don’t know if this is something I have to have surgery to get rid of, I cannot find anyone’s body type online the same as mine 😭
It’s not just a small bump either it’s a proper shelf it sticks out maybe 2.5cm standing side on, it’s not hard it’s squishy so I just don’t understand

Anyone tired of being pregnant?

I am 34 weeks and 4 days today and I have reached the point where I am so constantly uncomfortable that I sometimes tell myself I wouldn't mind it if baby came early. Obviously I don't actually want that, as I know she's still very thriving in there, but between the sleepless spells and the constant back and pelvic pain I do find myself wishing and hoping for time to go faster 🥲

Pee’d myself or water broke?

I’m seriously so unsure on if my water broke or not. I had a bad “I need to pee feeling” as I was bending down to grab a trash bag and when I got back up I felt like I tinkled myself a little and then I was like oo yeah I gotta go. Before I know it, I can’t stop and it keeps coming. I feel like it really could have been that I thought about it too much and a little coming out made me want to pee more but this is my 2nd pregnancy and my water did not break the 1st time so I’m unsure and now stressing out. It happened like 40 minutes ago and I haven’t had any more “fluid” since then. I also could not tell the color as I was wearing black pants but it did smell like mainly urine

Birthday Party Awkwardness

So I just went to a kid's birthday party with my little one today, and I felt like I was sooooo awkward. I didn't really know anyone, and spent most of my time focusing on my baby. I just feel like I struggle so much to "act natural" in social situations, especially in large group settings. My fear is that I'll somehow pass my awkwardness to my kid. Any other mamas out there feel this way?

20wk ultrasound tomorrow

First time mum and have my 20 week ultrasound tomorrow!
Very excited I get to see my baby boy again!
How long will the appointment last?

Also I understand this is likely to be my last NHS ultrasound which feels so crazy because it is only half way through pregnancy!

Wondering if it is worth getting a private ultrasound later on?
