34wks=SAFE?
I went to my high risk dr the other day and was told something strange. Well every time i go he checks my cervix. Im currently 24wks. He said once i hit 34wks he will no longer check my cervix. He said if i go into labor at 34wks i can just have my baby. Anyone feel me on how this is weird?
Comments
however im not a dr. so this is just a guess...
I know the special care nursery at my hospital handles babies born at 34 wks and up, earlier than that and the babies are stabilized and transferred to a different hospital.
Before 37 wks is still preterm though.
