Premature Labor
Preterm labor is defined as regular contractions of the uterus resulting in changes in the cervix that start before 37 weeks of pregnancy. Changes in the cervix include effacement (the cervix thins out) and dilation (the cervix opens so the fetus can enter the birth canal).
What is premature birth?
When birth occurs between 20 weeks of pregnancy and 37 weeks of pregnancy, it is called preterm birth.
Why is premature birth a concern?
Preterm birth is a concern because babies who are born too early may not be fully developed. They may be born with severe health problems. Some health problems, like cerebral palsy, can last a lifetime. Other issues, such as learning disabilities, may appear later in childhood or even in adulthood.
