birth complications

Whether you're preparing for an induction or breech birth or simply trying to make sense of something unexpected in your childbirth experience, we have plenty of solid information to help you navigate birth complications.

 preterm labor and preterm birth
If you start having regular contractions that cause your cervix to begin to open before you reach 37 weeks of pregnancy, you're in preterm labor. (It's also known as premature labor.)

If you deliver your baby before 37 weeks, it's called a preterm birth and your baby is considered.

Going into preterm labor does not mean you'll have a premature baby. Up to half of the women who experience preterm labor eventually deliver at 37 weeks or later.
