Ive just been reading my bounty book and it says 23 weeks and when i looked online it says 24 weeks. Confused :wacko:
 
Think it's that age old trimester across the water question :) uk sites say one thing and USA sites say another :) think its 24+5 or 6 days is 2/3rd's of the way through?
 
"Legally" in the UK its 24 weeks - thats probably what you need to know.
Some hospitals dependant on their policies (and babies health) will intervene if a baby arrived at 23 weeks.
 
It is 24 weeks in the UK. But if baby arrives before then and is breathing or shows signs of fighting to survive they generally intervene.
 
Wonder why in the bounty book it says 23 weeks and its in the bounty packs in the UK. 2 more days to go then lol.
 
I think anywhere between 23-24 weeks is probably considered viable. Depends on the baby. I guess it's like anything. All medical professionals etc have there own opinion.
 
The day baby would be considered viable (able to survive outside of the womb) :) Not a stupid question. I didn't know what it was until i joined here.
