At 32weeks 85% of infants survive. They still need a lot of help and will usually stay in the NICU until the original due date. They can have learning problems and developmental delays caused by prematurity.

∙ 8y agoThe normally accepted age of viability (the age a baby can survive outside the womb) is 25 weeks. There have been cases of babies surviving at 24 weeks but normally they do not. Even at week 25 babies face pretty big challenges.

∙ 6y agoYes, but not usually. I was born at exactly 22.5 weeks and have reached adulthood without any serious medical complications. However, I was very, very lucky. Children born this early very often have serious health complications, including blindness, deafness and mental retardation. Premature babies often have additional health problems in their first few months, as they have not fully developed. I had apnea - basically, I would stop breathing at unpredictable times - due to underdeveloped lungs. There are others, but it would be better to try a medical organization for those details. I recommend you try www.prematurity.org for more information.

∙ 12y agoNo they can not. At 22 weeks 9,1% live long enough to be discharged from hospital and often those babies, if they survive, have health problems all their life. Every day and week counts that early and even just 2 weeks earlier makes the difference between life and death.

Im 28 weeks pregnant can your baby survive if born now?

Can a baby born 20wks survive?
I think the youngest ever born was around 24 weeks
Baby born at 32 weeks?
Babies born after 22 weeks have a great chance of surviving, the earliest baby to survive in the UK was 21 weeks. So nearly all baby's that are born at 31 weeks live, although there is that small percentage that don't but this is unlikely if the pregnancy has been fine and healthy all through the rest of the pregnancy. I had a baby girl and she was born at 31 weeks and is absolutely fine although she did only weigh 3oz 8. and had to stay in neonatal unit for 3 weeks (just to gain weight) I hope this answered you question thanks
If you want your baby to be born in the month of February when should you try to get pregnant?
About 38 weeks prior to that. A pregnancy takes 40 weeks.
How early can you give birth in pregnancy?
I think the earliest baby that ever survived was 21 weeks? But babies born early are very sick and do not survive a lot of the time. The earliest that is normal to have the baby is 37 weeks, which will be about 3 weeks before you due date. I had my last baby at 35 weeks and he was 6lbs 9oz and very healthy. It's dangerous to have it earlier than that because the lungs haven't developed enough for the baby to breathe on its own.
Is the baby survive if she was born 3 weeks early than the due date?
Yes 37 weeks is considered full term
Can a baby survive if born at Weeks?
i had my second son at 27 weeks pregnant. He is now 17 and perfectly healthy. You would never have guessed he was premature.
Can a baby live outside a womb at 15 weeks?
The age of viability is 24-26 weeks gestation, although a baby born that early will have some complications. A baby born at 20weeks gestation cannot survive outside of the womb; therefore, the further along the pregnancy, the greater the chances of survival for the fetus. Babies born very premature have immature lungs, brain functioning capabilities, skin is very fragile; therefore these babies are unable to regulate their body temperature. In other words the baby is most likely not going to survive.
What is the number of days a baby spent in the uterus and still survived?
Most babies born before 24 weeks of gestation do not survive. However, this article is about a baby born after only 21 weeks (153 days) who did survive: http://www.nysun.com/national/youngest-premature-babys-survival-called-a-miracle/49036/
Is a baby healthy being born at 32 weeks?
At 32 weeks, it is very likely that the baby would survive, however he or she may need to have a short stay in the Special Care Baby Unit (SCBU) to have some help with breathing and feeding
Can the pregnancy last 10 months?
Yes, a normal gestation can vary between 38 and 40 weeks for a baby born at term.
