A doctor has provided 1 answer

Basics: At 35 wks your infant has a 50% risk of needing NICU care which declines every day you remain pregnant. You should try to make it to 37 wks if possible unless told otherwise. The womb is usually a better environment for baby than the NICU. Clarify your status with the docs.
