The goal of this observational prospective study is to explore the feasibility of measuring fetal and neonatal brain growth using 2D and 3D ultrasound in fetuses exposed to threatened preterm labor (TPTL) and antenatal corticosteroids (ACS) compared to non-exposed fetuses. Patients with singleton pregnancies on our site with repeated ultrasound measurements every 4 weeks will be evaluated for fetal brain development. The exposed group is defined as patients with a dual exposure of TPTL and ACS. The non-exposed group will be composed of patients who did not have TPTL and ACS. Therefore, patients will have a maximum of 5 additional visits (4 that will occur prenatally and 1 postnatal visit).
