Content: Other infections like gonorrhoea and chlamydia could also trigger premature delivery. The chances of a child being born prematurely are even higher in mothers who have had previous pregnancies that also ended in premature births. At times, the presence of certain health conditions of the baby or the mother-to-be might require early delivery. This is usually done at a higher risk of infant mortality if the pregnancy is allowed to continue as opposed to premature delivery. Also, unless and until there are emergency conditions, caesarean surgery is only done after 37 completed weeks. Existing medical conditions of the mother-to-be, such as those related to the heart, or diabetes, and blood pressure can lead to premature deliveries. In some cases, consecutive pregnancies with fewer intervals, and IVF can also lead to premature births. Sometimes, severe health conditions and an unhealthy living environment can trigger early delivery too. Poor lifestyle choices such as consuming alcohol, taking drugs, smoking, and stressful and troubled life, like working long hours, being a victim of domestic violence, etc. can also lead to preterm childbirth.
