This sounds completley like gall bladder attacks. I had them for approx a year, until tmy gall bladder became infected and had to be removed.
My dr explain to me the reason my skin *****les and itches when i'm hot when i'm pregnant is because I dont have a gall baldder, my body (whos liver normally has to work hard anyway) is now working extra hard and cant clear the bile prolery.
Sounds to me like the pregnancy is causing your gall bladder to work OT, however you normally only get an attack when you have a stone blocking the passage way, or its infected.
If its really affecting you I would get them to do an ultrasound to confirm weather you have stones or not, because if you have stones, it will just get worse over time sadly Happily if you dont have stones, it probably just your liver taking a battering. I find drinking apple juice always helped me as it is a natural directic and helps clear the liver.
Sorry to hear your going through it, I know the feeling, feels like your dying sometimes with the severe attacks.
Thinking of you.
