How far along until baby is in 'safe zone' if he comes early?

Question

I'm having a boy and I'm almost 24 weeks. I've heard boys born prem are less likely to survive than girls and might have more developmental problems if they do 😔 I'm just wondering what week I can relax and know if baby comes early it will be okay and he will survive. I get heaps of braxton hicks so it's always on my mind. Thanks

Answer

I read survival rate after 27 weeks is 80% and survival rate after 28 weeks is 90%. There's not really a "safe zone" though. Some babies just need longer in the NICU depending on their development.

Answer

Also! Most people get Braxton hicks throughout their second trimester just not everyon feels them! So hopefully your baby holds out til full term

Answer

I read 90% of babies born after 27 weeks survive, but that stil comes with health issues

Answer

Why are you worried about preterm...? Are you high risk.?
