How would that be done?; treating an infant’s lungs before an early termed birth. I doubt if the doctor opens the abdomen, as with a cesarean birth, because that would damage the placenta, if I’m not mistaken. So there must be entry via oral, vaginal or navel locations. Is that correct?
Very advanced medicine, these days.

I think they administer steroids and surfactant to the baby while still in womb, to stimulate development of their lungs’ ability to help them breathe after birth

not sure how they do it, trach? Many procedures and surgeries can now be performed on babies before they are born

If this lady makes it another 8 weeks her baby could have a decent chance, as I am sure any women would want, if asked. and would say “Let the baby be born, then let me go”
