Welcome to FR, and congratulations on your second post.
Not every hospital is equipped with neo-natal intensive care units (NICU). Nor would it make economic sense.
It would be nice if the story provided some precise information as to how far along the pregnancy actually was, as a single week can make a tremendous difference at that point. See chart below.

Thank You!
I would be pouring in some thoughts about this instance in future as the baby is still in NICU. I would also be poring through the data of healthcare of premature babies so that I can provide a substantial piece of information.
