Struggling with preterm labor medication & side effects

Hi everyone,

I’m currently 30 weeks pregnant and last week I was almost facing preterm labor. I was discharged from the hospital with a bunch of medications: 8x Bryophyllum 50% (Weleda), 2x Nifedipin Merpha Retard (to delay labor), plus magnesium and Gynoflor.

Since then, I’ve been struggling with chest pain and ongoing contractions. My doctors keep telling me it’s just a side effect of Nifedipin and that I should only come back to the hospital if the chest pain or contractions become unbearable.

Has anyone else gone through this? I’m worried not only about me but also about the safety of my baby. I’d love to hear your experiences
