At that point it's mostly lung development. The lungs have to mature to in order for the baby to breathe on it's own. Also, to gain a little more weight so he/she can start to support it's own body temperature better. It's just a "neediness" factor. They thrive best at full term, but can "survive" with help from heaters/oxygen/etc. before that.
