Kalina, I had to have mine out just 4 weeks after my ds1 was born. I had terrible attacks just after he was born and shunted from pillar to post and ended up in ed where they still misdiagnosed it!
My breastfeed baby went onto formula although I continued pumping and he went back to 100% breastfeed after a few weeks. DH just coped. He had to. We don't have family around and he's not one to ask for help. He looked after his little boy the best way he could - perhaps it was different to what I would be doing, but he did it his way and they both survived the ordeal! They spent a whole week without me. My surgery was done immediately - firstly an op to break up the stone stuck in my CBD and then secondly, a seperate op to remove the whole gall bladder.
