What week is viability week in pregnancy?

Question

I've been reading up on pregnancy milestones and saw something about 'viability week'. Can anyone tell me around what week of pregnancy is a baby generally considered viable? It's a big relief to know.

Viability usually refers to around 24 weeks, when a baby has a chance to survive outside the womb. Until then, focus on maintaining your health with gentle exercises like walking, if your doctor clears it. It helps keep you strong.

My biology class said viability is usually around 24 weeks. That's when the baby has a chance to survive if born early. Pretty crazy how much development happens in just a few weeks!

Beti, they say by 6 months, around 24 weeks, the baby is strong enough. This is a good time to start prayers and light gentle walks. Always talk to your doctor, but keep your mind peaceful too.

Fetal viability is typically considered to be from 24 weeks of gestation onwards, though outcomes improve significantly with each additional week. It's a critical period. Regular antenatal care and adhering to your doctor's recommendations are paramount during this stage.
