Hello dear, thanks for trusting health care magic.
It is given to enhance fetal lung maturity and has no harmful effects on baby.
Yes this is earlier than desired date of delivery but still baby will be fine if delivered.
In case you have any questions in future you can contact me directly on http://bit.ly/drmanishajain
