Dover, DE asked in Immigration Law for Delaware

Q: Pregnant and giving birth in the states.

Im pregnant and in the states on tourist visa. I plan to give birth in the states upon doctors advice, since I have had two misscarriages and there are no good quality medical care in Liberia where I am from, but I will not be overtaying the 6 months I was given at immigration. I did not inform the officer at the immigration that I was preganant. I plan to pay for all medical care I will recieve without government assistance. Will I have any problem renewing my visa later?
