Hello
Welcome to HCM.
Thanks for posting your query. I understand your concerns.
Stone in the gallbladder doesn't require any surgical line of management until and unless it is causing severe pain. If you are having pain on the right side of you abdomen, you are expected to undergo cholecystectomy.
As you are in your second trimester, it is safe to undergo surgery.
If you are a symptomatic, you can undergo surgery after the delivery.
Hope this helps you
Thankyou
