Prematurity and low birth weight can result from babies being born prematurely before 37 weeks or being small-for-gestational-age. Complications of prematurity include respiratory issues, temperature instability, hypoglycemia, jaundice, brain hemorrhages, and infections. Small babies may be growth-restricted due to conditions that interfere with placental function such as maternal hypertension, malnutrition, or infections. Both preterm and growth-restricted infants are at risk of feeding difficulties, apnea, hypothermia, and long-term developmental delays.
