Completed weeks of gestation at birth
Survival
21 weeks and less 0%
22 weeks <<1%
23 weeks 5-25%
24 weeks 40-60%
25 weeks 50-80%
26 weeks 80-90%
27 weeks >90%
30 weeks >95%
34 weeks >98%
A baby’s chances for survival increases 3-4% per day between 23 and 24 weeks of gestation and about 2-3% per day between 24 and 26 weeks of gestation. After 26 weeks the rate of survival increase at a much slower rate because survival is high already.
