So i had my 20 week ultrasound and appointment on Friday, was finally able to discuss the fact that ive been having contractions as well as braxton hicks since 17 weeks. This is my first pregnancy so i know it's way too early for me to be having the problems i currently am. My dr is sending me to a specialist in order to watch My cervix and membranes and to hopefully catch it before i start thinning.

My question is what can i do to help myself as i get further along? Im currently working full time and am on my feet 8 hours a day, i eat good snack all day drink lots of water. My Dr doesn't want me working out or anything which I guess makes sense but i just feel like if i were to work out it would strenghten everything and maybe help.

I just know i want to try anything i can to help the situation. My dr has told me she's worried i might go into preterm labor already.. Which totally freaks me out. I just want my son to grow and develop right and not risk losing him..
