Can contractions feel like sharp pains?

I am a 25 year old female. I want to know if contractions can feel like sharp pains?

Yes, contractions generally feel like sharp pains in your belly that last about 30-60 seconds and then resolve. If they come and go more frequently then every five minutes, then you need to be evaluated by your doctor.
