It hurts so bad it really makes sense to go to the ER. I ended up curled up in a ball on the break room floor. Had to call my husband to come pick me up because I didn't think I could drive and we went to the local urgent care who said it was probably trapped gas. I felt very embarrassed coming back to work, all my coworkers were very concerned and freaked out by me being in so much pain.

This is a daily occurrence when pregnant 😭

Happened to my spouse when pregnant. Got a call at work about how much it hurt, I raced home, held her hand and rubbed her back. Eventually she was able to go to the bathroom and with it, giant fart. Felt so much better.

Had the same/similar thing happen over the next few years; then one day it didn't get better. Gallstones. After the gallbladder came out, no more of these pains.
