Then I went to the nurse's office and told her I had a stomach ache, which was true, because I felt like I'd been kicked in the gut. What does "kicked in the gut" mean?

It just means “kicked in the stomach”, meaning their stomach hurt.

"I felt like I had been kicked in the gut," usually means "I was hurt emotionally, not physically." It implies a sudden and severe emotional pain, as bad as being kicked in the stomach. It is a figure of speech and not literal.

Kicked in the gut is just an expression to say how awful they feel, because getting physically kicked in the gut is a terrible feeling so that's what they're trying to express.
