Please relax, there is nothing to worry.
Duvadilan tablets are not to be used. The baby position is not of much importance till 34 weeks. The baby constantly moves and the position of the baby will change of course you do your walking and other normal activities every day.

Dear lybrate-user,
Duvadilan retard is generally considered safe to use in pregnancy but it is usually not given at this period of gestation as it doesn’t cause much effect of relaxation on such a small uterus.

Tab duvadilan is a tocolytic agent ,it relaxes the uterus, it's given to patients who are having premature uterine contractions. Duvadilan can be safely taken during pregnancy ,if you're having decreased fetal movements then eat something and lie on your left laterally, count your fetal movements ,if you have 3-4 fetal movements in 30 minutes then it's fine .if you do not feel fetal movement or decreased fetal movements then contact your doctor.

There may be uterine contractions, to prevent premature delivery your doctor might have prescribed this drug.
