Hi there
Yes there couod be some complications but its gestational age dependent- the earlier the weeks at delivery, the more likely the risk of complications. Some common complications of prematurity syndrome include: respiratory distress syndrome, brain bleeding, seizuree, bowel issues, retinopathy of prematurity est.
You should discuss with your Neonatologist to get information specific to your case.
All the best.
