Your stomach is on the left side of your body and cramp sometimes will happen if you haven't had enough calcium In actual fact it is not your stomach that you are referring to, but your abdomen of which your stomach is just one part. The gurgle and cramp before a bowel movement is usually due to peristalsis (the normal progressive contractions of bowel) in the left flexure of the greater colon as it forces air and faeces round this difficult bend into the descending colon. All this is an essential part of the final bowel movement.
