What I Already Knew!

I didn’t know much about premature babies before I started my research, I knew that they were small and some are not fully developed.

I choose this topic because my cousin was a premature baby and he died because his lungs were not fully developed

My search results

Very small premature babies are normally born more than 8 weeks early (after less than 32 weeks of pregnancy)

-have very red, thin skin and very little fat-have perfectly formed organs that are not mature enough to work well for several weeks-need special care in the hospital for at least 3 to 4 weeks and often much longer until they are mature enough to be cared for at home.

There are many causes of early birth. Sometimes a baby may need to be delivered early because the pregnancy causes a health problem for the mother. Sometimes there is an infection in the birth canal that causes early labor or causes the mother's water to break early. Twins or other multiple births are often born early.
