Dear,
In obstetric cholestasis there can be an increased risk of preterm delivery & fetal distress.so at present most obstetricians are managing oc pregnancies by delivering baby at 37 weeks to prevent the possibilities of stillbirth.
Your obstetrician will monitor your condion & advice you to deliver baby early by monitoring your liver enzymes & serum bile salt levels.
So it is advisable to follow your obstetrician's advice.
Regards,
Dr Devika Patel.
