Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
35 weeks is not considered as preterm.
So she can definitely deliver a baby at 35 weeks.
Since she is having altered liver enzymes, it is better to deliver at early stages because continuing pregnancy can further damage liver.
So better to follow her doctor's advice and go for delivery.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your wife. Thanks.
