Hello,
It is unfortunate that you have had to suffer so much at just 24 weeks of gestation. Now that the severe episode has subsided, you need to continue with the tocolytic agents that were able to put your uterus at rest until the baby becomes mature or until your consultant feels it is time for delivery. You should also take care that you do not contract any genito-urinary infections as these can predispose to the onset of preterm labor again. Absolute bed rest, rest in left lateral position, regular fetal monitoring and dexomethasone injections, if inevitable preterm birth is anticipated, are necessary. Wish you good health.
