Think I am having a gall bladder attack - call the OB?

last year at 32 weeks pregnant I was sent to the ER by ambulance in A LOT of pain.  It was so bad that it hurt to breathe.

They did a bunch of tests and determined that I had a gall bladder attack and that it would *probably* have to come out after the baby was born.

Well, I never had it taken out - mainly because it was not bothering me anymore.

Well, I am having side pain that goes to my back (left side if it matters) and if I take a deep breathe, it hurts.  Kinda feels like I have to throw up, or pee - hard to explain.  Last year (Ithink) the pain was in my right side??

It is nothing like last year. 

Should I call the OB?

    Your gall bladder is on your right side, with your liver.  This is different if it's on the left (spleen, panceas?).  Definately call your doctor.

    TTC since May 2006. After 3 failed Clomid cycles, 2 failed Injectibles/IUIs, 2 failed IVFs and 1 failed FET, we moved on to adoption!

    Last ditch FET resulted in BFP, and identical twin girls!

    I'd call, it could be a kidney stone or infection.

    Like pp said, your gallbladder is on your right side. I had issues with mine right after delivering my girls. My eyes and skin turned yellow and I was really sick. If you are having any pain whatsoever, it is better to be safe and call your OB!

    Yup, gallbladder is on the right side.  I'd call your OB, but you also might call your regular doctor.

    Called the OB, and it only took 45 minutes for them to get back to me, thanks :(

    Based on what I told him, he thinks I pulled/strained a muscle.  Take Tylenol and if not better call him in the morning.

    He also told me that if I have bleeding, cramping, shortness of breath, etc, etc to call back and go to the ER.
