Viability of baby

Bryn has this posted on her site, and I thought I'd share it on mine, too.

These are the survival rates for babies born preterm, by weeks of gestation.

Chances for Survival

Completed Weeks of Gestation at Birth

21 weeks and less 0%

22 weeks 0-10%*

23 weeks 10-40%

24 weeks 40-70%

25 weeks 50-80%

26 weeks 80-90%

27 weeks >90%

30 weeks >95%

34 weeks >98%

I got excited for a minute, thinking we were at 25 weeks, but am pretty sure "gestation" refers to age of the fetus. In which case, we've got two weeks to go before we're over that 50% mark...
