Chance of survival at 30 weeks?

At 30 weeks, the chances of survival for a premature baby are very good. The vast majority of babies born at this gestational age will survive and go on to live full and healthy lives.

According to the March of Dimes, the survival rate for babies born at 30 weeks is around 95%. This means that for every 100 babies born at this gestational age, 95 of them will survive.

There are a few factors that can affect the chances of survival for a baby born at 30 weeks. These factors include:

* The baby's birth weight

* The baby's overall health

* The level of medical care available

If the baby is born with a low birth weight or has other health problems, the chances of survival may be lower. However, even babies with low birth weights or other health problems can often survive and go on to live healthy lives.

The level of medical care available also plays an important role in the chances of survival for a baby born at 30 weeks. Babies born in hospitals with specialized neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) have a much higher chance of survival than babies born in hospitals without NICUs.

Overall, the chances of survival for a baby born at 30 weeks are very good. With proper medical care, most babies born at this gestational age will go on to live full and healthy lives.
