Hi,
With your past history and the present symptom, it is likely that you may go into preterm labor again. Please see your consultant and get help immediately to see if the onset of active labor, if not already started, can be postponed. You would need admission and monitoring of fetal condition and in case the delivery has to be effected, well-equipped preterm baby unit. Please take rest with foot end elevated and do not try to push or lift any weight. Take adequate liquids and avoid constipation. Wish you safe motherhood.
