Please let your PCP know, and staying well hydrated is important. Avoid dairy products, take a probiotic and monitor your temperature, after discussing with your PCP.

You should see ob/gyn right away as these symptoms can initiate uterine contractions and fetus is not ready for independent survival. Hope all will be fine. Thanks for asking.
