Brief Answer:
No eventual side effect
Detailed Answer:
No it will not affect baby further if this week goes fine.
Rest is very important at your stage as you had mild contraction also so rest will lead to quiescence of uterine muscles and thus revert any danger of preterm pains due to those contractions.
All the best

Brief Answer:
Off and on pain are contractions
Detailed Answer:
No contractions are slight off and on pain you must be experiencing after the jolt by the kid.
These are uterine muscle contractions and can eventually turn into preterm labour.
Rest is the only solution and easiest way out.
