Both yes and no. Your considered early term so baby won’t be considered premature, but your also not full term so there may be some issues. it’s really a case by case thing. My coworker delivered at 37 weeks but her baby had to spend a few weeks in the NICU. My sister in law had her baby around the same GA and was totally fine. It’s best to check with your doctor and see what they say based off your specific case.
