Causes Of Dyscalculia

Premature Birth

Premature birth is one that takes place before the expectant mother's thirty-seventh week of pregnancy. The risk of premature birth is increased for mothers who have previously had a premature baby and for mothers pregnant with twins or triplets. After birth, premature babies often need immediate specialist hospital care in a dedicated neonatal unit, and some may require surgery. Preterm birth may lead to complex and chronic long-term health problems, including cerebral palsy, hearing difficulties, heart defects, vision problems such as a detached retina, asthma, delayed tooth eruption, and behavioral or developmental delays. Some premature babies will have several complications, while others may have only slight impairments. Many premature babies go on to live a normal life.
