The said that about the steroids when i was given them for Anneliese Fi, but i was talking to one dr, and asked how they could mature a babies lungs, and then what? The babies lungs would un-mature?? So they do help, even if given 6 weeks before like Anneliese, how many babies born at 30w dont need oxygen at birth?? I believe all the steroids given to her helped her immensely.
