Hello Tasha and welcome.
This just points towards a possible urinary tract infection (UTI) which is a very common occurence during pregnancy. There is nothing to worry about, and tour baby is perfectly fine. Your doctor might initiate antibiotics, you should drink plenty of water and cranberry juice as tolerated. Also abstain from all forms of sexual contact.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
