It could but not necessarily. Did ur doc put u on any restrictions? I would stay off ur feet. Try taking it easy for at least the next 4 weeks.

I was admitted at 29 weeks for pre term labor and again at 33 weeks. Both times I was given medication to stop the contractions and steroid shots. I am now 36 weeks going on 37 on Friday.  I keep having a lot of pelvic pressure and contraction which hurt pretty bad. But I am waiting for my contractions to get very very strong or for my water  to break before going back to l&d.
