  2. Fetal viability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetal_viability

    The baby's gestational age (number of completed weeks of pregnancy) at the time of birth and the baby's weight (also a measure of growth) influence whether the baby will survive. Another major factor is gender: male infants have a slightly higher risk of dying than female infants, [ 41 ] for which various explanations have been proposed.

    The sex of the fetus may be discerned by ultrasound as early as 11 weeks' gestation. The accuracy is relatively imprecise when attempted early.

    The chance of survival at 22 weeks is about 6%, while at 23 weeks it is 26%, 24 weeks 55% and 25 weeks about 72% as of 2016. [189] With extensive treatment up to 30% of those who survive birth at 22 weeks survive longer term as of 2019. [190] The chances of survival without long-term difficulties is less. [24]

    Ultrasound is also a common tool for determining viability and location of a pregnancy. Serial ultrasound may be used to identify non-viable pregnancies, as pregnancies that do not grow in size or develop expected structural findings on repeated ultrasounds over a 1–2 week interval may be identified as abnormal.

  9. Fetal movement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetal_movement

    By about week 21, the fetus begins to develop a regular schedule of movement. [17] The startle reflex is present in half of all fetuses by week 24 and in all fetuses by week 28. [19] Movement is restricted around this time because the fetus has grown so large it has little space for kicking or changing body position. [20]
