Summary

This study looks at whether delivering babies with gastroschisis at 35 weeks is better than waiting until 38 weeks. Gastroschisis is a birth defect where the baby's intestines stick out of a hole in the belly. The study will track 300 pregnant people and compare risks like stillbirth, newborn death, infection, and breathing problems. The goal is to find the safest delivery timing for these babies.
