Has anyone had a lap Coli (gallbladder removed)
I’m getting my gallbladder removed on Tuesday! Finally after being miserable for months. I’m a little worried about pain/discomfort the few days after and taking care of my 8 week old. Should I have people on call or at home with me to help? Or will I be okay on my own?

I just got mine removed last week. I'm overall good I can hold baby and breastfeed so long as I lay down. I do struggle with getting baby in and out of the crib so having someone to do that will help. First day, I needed help because he was too heavy. But 5 days post surgery I feel great and resumed my normal life.
@Kacey how was your surgery go?
Hi I got mine removed whole gullblader I had 60 stones
@Ana Surgery went well! But recovery has been a bit of a struggle. I’m still experiencing pain around the larger incision, especially when lifting baby and bending. I have a post op appointment tomorrow so hopefully I’ll get some answers

I had it removed 3 months ago, my little girl was 6 months and I had help everyday for the first 2 weeks as I wasn’t allowed to lift things over 6 pounds. The first few days the pain and discomfort was there but after you start to feel better as long as you keep up with your pain relief
