How long can a baby (healthily) stay in a mother's womb?
Can a mother's health affect how long a baby can stay in the womb?
Yes, a mother's health can have an impact on how long a baby can stay in the womb. Conditions such as high blood pressure or gestational diabetes may require the baby to be delivered earlier than normal. Additionally, if the mother goes into premature labor or experiences other complications, the baby may need to be delivered before the full 39 to 40 week timeframe.
