What I generally do in school is bring a bottle of water to school. When I've drank it, I go the bathroom and fill it with warm water. I then play with it in class, and rub it on my tummy. No one notices, they think I'm just fidgeting

Rubbing your tummy sometimes helps. Pain meds- I'm from England, and I generally do have painkillers I've bought (not ones that have been prescribed) in my bag. I'm not sure what the rules specifically are, but I've never been told off for it. Depends on the school.

School nurses often have a hot water bottle for this very purpose! At least mine does. It's pink Just mention you're having stomach cramps, is there anything she can do to help you?

Good luck!
