One of the problems is respiratory distress syndrome. This occurs when the baby's lungs are too underdeveloped to work properly. A baby with immature lungs may have trouble breathing and need a ventilator.

Babies who are premature and low birthweight may have organs that are not fully developed. This can lead to breathing problems, such as respiratory distress syndrome, bleeding in the brain, vision loss and serious intestinal problems.
They also reduce the two most serious complications of premature birth, respiratory distress syndrome (by about 50 percent) and bleeding in the brain (by about 70 percent).

This frequently results in severe breathing difficulties, a condition known as Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS). The earlier a baby is born, the more likely he is to suffer from RDS. After 32 weeks, RDS is far less common.
