General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi
Welcome to hcm
You must be having hernia above umbilicus. Recently it must have became obstructed. Obstructed hernia causes pain and vomiting and what you are discribing as baby movements are actually hyperperistalsis that is hyper bovel movements due to obstruction. You need to see a surgeon urgently and this requires urgent surgery. If you dont do operation urgently bovel which is obstructed in the hernia may become gangrenous that is dead which requires removal of that part of bovel. So try to see your surgeon earliest possible.
Regards.
