hello dear,I understand youur concern.In my opinion i suggest you to consult doctor to know if there are cervical changes due to contractions.If that is the case you might need IV infusion with medicines which decrease contractions.Also rule out the causes for preterm labour like urinary tract infections,dental infections, dehydration if any and get treatment accordingly.Take adequate fluids upto 3 litres.Dont worry with apt treatment it will subside.
