There are many risks associated with having a premature baby (born before 37 weeks gestation). The risk of mortality for the baby is higher in it's first year after birth. Premature babies are also at higher risk of neurological and disability problems, due to the brain not having had the full gestation time to develop. This can also be true of the other vital organs such as the heart, liver, kidneys and lungs, and many premature babies can experience maladies of their vital organs.
