Before delivery doctors did not get time to do the injection to mature the lungs of the baby. Now baby is recovering. My question is , will there be any side effectd of medicines given to the baby?
All the medicines will have some unwanted effects on body. But most such effects are mild and insignificant You need not worry. Your doctor will give a particular medicine only when it’s side effects are much lower compared to its benefits
