Was I Experiencing Contractions?

Last night for about 30-45 minutes, I experienced weird pains in my upper abdomen. It kind of felt like a burning sensation that started back by my ribs and moved to the front of my stomach and then bothered me for a good 30 seconds. My stomach got really right and I felt like I had to throw up each time.

It wasn’t the most unbearable pain, but it certainly wasn’t comfortable. It happened a little bit lower too, but not as bad. It made me feel like I had to poop, but I didn’t have to.

I don’t know if contractions can feel like a burning sensation, but I know everyone is different.

Thanks!
