Turns out I had a hernia in my stomach where part of your bowel comes through a rip in your stomach muscle and then pinches off the blood supply to you bowel.

Ouch - my kid had the same thing at 8 weeks old, by the time they figured out what was causing such pain some of the bowel tissue had died and had to be cut out
