For those of us with conditions like PCOS, viability can feel like a big milestone. Generally, a pregnancy is considered viable when the fetus has a reasonable chance of survival outside the womb. This is usually around 24 weeks gestation, but it's a cautious period. Every week makes a difference, but always rely on your doctor's guidance.
Most doctors say around 24 weeks is when a baby is considered 'viable,' meaning they have a chance to survive if born prematurely. It's a huge relief to reach that point, and it's why the second trimester feels a bit less stressful. Just keep following your doctor's advice carefully.
Ho na, people say around 24 weeks. That's when the baby has a chance to survive if born early. It's a big milestone for parents, na? Just keep taking good care until then.
With my diabetes, I learned that managing blood sugar carefully from the start is important for the baby's development and viability.

Viability is usually considered around 24 weeks. Until then, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including gentle exercise like walking (if your doctor approves), is important for both mother and baby. Every week of healthy development increases the chances.
