I traveled to India recently and had a dropbox H4 appointment. Received my visa stamp incorrectly as H1B on my passport, I did not catch this error in India. Traveled to the US, entered the US and now my I-94 reflects H1B

I was trying to renew my H4 EAD, and thats when I caught this mistake. What are my options to get this corrected? Making things more complicated, I am pregnant and in my third trimester which makes traveling outside the country hard right now

Things I tried
- Reached out to Mumbai Consulate who made the error via email and have not heard back

Questions:
Currently working on an H4 EAD valid till mid next year, do I have to stop working immediately?
 
Walk down to USCBP port of entry where you entered last time. Find out if they can fix or file I-539 change of status to h-4 clearly mentioning incorrect h-1b stamp on your passport & entry into US.
