Might be a uterine infection? Perhaps it's just as well you have a gynae appt this afternoon, they might be able to diagnose for you?

Are you worried about the gynae appointment? Could it be stress?

I am worried about the appointment, first one in what looks to be a long line. Have 2 prolapses

I am such a wuss when it comes to pain, dont know how I managed to have 2 children!

What are the symptoms of a UTI? I have pack pain too!

Might just be the worry of the appointment going straight to your stomach!

If you've got back pain as well, though, I'd give NHS Direct a ring and see what they say just in case you have a UTI.

Just thought that if they feel like labour pains, then they seem likely to be gynaecological.. I think labour feels like period pains x a million!

Sometimes a polyp rupturing can feel like that I think.. which is not a very uncommon scenario as I read that most of us have them to some degree.

could be horrific wind. A friend of mine fainted once from wind pain and this was after she'd given birth to two children!!!
I sometimes get severe pain from wind - could it be that?

I am having the same problem here!!!!!!

I have been sick 3 times this morning, have chronic heartburn and stabbing pains from my lower chest to my lower abdomen.

Been having the heartburn for about a month and the stabbing pains every now and then.

My mum has told me to ring the doctors for an appointment as she thinks it could be a stomach ulcer!!!!!?????

She has now worried me, but she said that she had one in her late 20's and had the same symptoms??

Anyone else had experience of this????

I sometimes get pains like this when I have bad constipation or if I take senokot to help the constipation, it feels exactly like being in labour.

I had stomach pains for 3 days earlier this week. No sickness or anything else, just bad pains. I think its a virus....

Tamba, doctors always say you need to lose weight, it's programmed into their brains. Even if you go in with a sore throat, they'll tell you it's because you need to lose weight!

Sounds like it was just the stress ... but if it happens again, straight to the GP with a urine sample.
