If my baby was born at 34 weeks would she be ok?

Q: Ok I know I have asked a question like this be for but I just need to know. I just hit 34 weeks and I have been in and out of the L&D room a few times now he last time was only 2 days ago. They told my I was 1 1/2 cm dilated. I saw my doctor today and he told me I was at almost 3 cm dilated. He said I will have the baby soon.. If she was born now would she be ok? Would she be able to come home with me? If any one can tell me anything it will help.(Yes I’m on bed rest and I am on meds to stop the contractions.)(I have not had any steroid shots.)

A: “The more mature your baby is at birth, the more likely that it is that he will not have any problems, so that babies born at 26-29 weeks have a much better chance of surviving and growing up either normal or with mild or moderate problems. Babies born at 30-33 weeks usually do even better, and have a very high rate of survival. After 34 weeks, babies are usually only mildly immature and usually do very well.Except for older infants over 30-33 weeks, many premature babies need to be on a ventilator to help them breath normally. In addition, one of the problems that your premature baby may have on his first few days of life is Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) because of his immature lungs. Babies with RDS are usually on a ventilator and will probably also receive a medication called surfactant to help their lungs.”Read my source for more info.
