Welcome to Healthcare Magic
There could be a vaginal infection which can cause premature labour and infection to baby if not looked at early by the Doctor. Better to not take chance and get a Gynaecology consult immediately. Drink plenty of water. Eat fresh fruits and vegetables. You may need to get swabs taken from vagina and also urine test for any urinary infection as well. Don't take any medication without medical advice and supervision.
