Preterm labor or incompetent cervix

Being born too early can result in permanent lung damage, bleeding in the brain, and life long disabilities. Preterm or premature delivery cannot always be prevented, but in many cases there are things that can be done to significantly increase the chances of prolonging the pregnancy to allow you baby more time to grow. Each extra week the doctors can delay you baby’s birth helps immensely.

We have handled cases where military doctors have ignored signs of preterm labor resulting in premature babies being born unexpectedly at home, in cars, or even in a bathroom. We have handled cases where despite prior premature babies, women were not given a cerclage (a stitch to keep the cervix closed) or were not checked frequently enough to detect the early signs of preterm delivery.

If your baby was born prematurely at an  Army, Navy or Air Force hospital , and you believe warning signs were ignored or missed, please contact us so we can help.  We offer a free initial consultation with an experienced military birth injury attorney.  There is no fee ever unless we get a recovery for you.
