contractions??

Today I worked my butt off at work and half way through my shift the top of my stomach felt tight and very very painful, as if I had done a bunch of crunches and as though my stomach muscles have been stretched .. The pain has been there for the past 5 hours. Every now and then it'll hurt more than usual... I guess all I'm asking is what am I feeling? Are these contractions or just my body being tired? I'm a first time Mhm and im worried.

Sounds like contractions to me. Drink a lot of water and rest!! If they pain is still there or gets worse then go to the hospital. The same thing happened to me last weekend and they had to give me two shots to stop my contractions even though they came back 3 days later.
