Brooke Mueller, the pregnant wife of Charlie Sheen, is in her first trimester. She was having excruciating pain last week, so she went to the emergency room at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. The docs had to perform emergency gallbladder surgery. Dr. Cherlin Johnson an emergency medicine physician in Beverly Hills said:
"Any kind of surgery in the first trimester carries a lot of risks given that this is an intensive time of development for the embryo.."
"You try to minimize medication to the mother during that time. However, if there is an escalating infection, that could be life threatening to the mother and therefore for the fetus as well."

Mueller was in the hospital five days, and has been home recovering for the past five days. She was well enough to attend the horrible Emmy Awards with Charlie. She probably wishes she had stayed home.
