Hello there!!
So have u been diagnosed incidentally?
If so yeah you can wait but u need to get operated as the stone is already 9mm… its better before your gall bladder doesnt get infected with stone and cause pain!

Nobody can given you exact date when it can cause a problem. So better is get rid of it asap as your pregnancy is also over. Moreover drugs are quite safe now a days so that breastfeeding wont be a problem
