When is a fetus age of viability?

actually it vary among countries e.g. UK 24 weeks, Jordan 28 weeks

23 weeks Basically, the concept of age of viability is purely a medical concept. It has nothing to do with legal provisions. Legally, to bring the charges of infanticide (killing of an infant or newborn) it is necessary to show that the concerned child was born alive. So the charges of infanticide or abandoning the child etc. can be brought against the culprits in both cases of viable as well as non-viable child. But still question might arise was the child alive after the birth? The answer is tried to be answered by taking the help of concept of age of viability. Less is the degree of maturity of the foetus at the time of birth, less are chances of live-birth and vice-versa. If there are sufficient advanced medical facilities available at the birth centre, non-viable child can be supported to survive and even a viable child may die soon after birth if there are no such advanced medical facilities at that birth centre. Most of the medico legal experts across the world accept the age of viability as 210 days or 28 weeks or 7 lunar month from the date of fertilization.

Is shizophernia fetal?

Schizophrenia is not a fatal illness. However, it makes people less likely to take good care of themselves. Many schizophrenics need care from someone else in order to stay healthy. So schizophrenia does contribute to poor health.

Can baby Orange baboon spiders harm you?

All spiders have at least a small amount of poison, though this is miniscule in the infantory status. Even a baby black widow would be unlikely to cause serious harm to a child unless they were alergic. Baboon spiders are slightly less poisonous than black widows....but I wouldn't want them around to mature. Also when an egg sac opens there's a potential you could get swarmed...though most species tend not to eat for the first couple of days.

The fetus is in the uterus and when pregnant there's a mucus plug closing the entrance to the uterus so semen or anything else can not enter when you are pregnant.

No offense, but this is not a health care provider website. Answers to your questions are likely to be inexpert at best. There are loads of comprehensive websites for neonatal care out on the internet. Try these two: http://pregnancy.about.com/ http://www.pregnancy.org/

What are the beneficial effects of birth control?

Since you come from one egg and one sperm cell how long does it take for the cells to divide and have eyes to see?

Once the sperm fertilizes the ovum they begin to divide and then move to the uterus around the 4th day once they have divided to 100 cells. The zygote (the fertilized egg) then attaches to the uterus around 10 days. The embryo begins development of eyes at 4 weeks and eyelid development in the 6th week. Eyelids fuse and close in the 8-10th week and the face looks more human at 16 weeks because the eyes face forward rather than to the side.

Can you only really be 6 weeks if you are told you are 12 weeks pregnant at a scan?

With that much of a difference,not likely. But your baby could be on the larger side, but not THAT much larger. The ultrasounds are pretty accurate. They are measuring the brain development, skull size, and other organs to get this estimate.

Can anyone live without fingernails?

yes, you will not die without them. however, all the nerve endings in your fingers end under your nails and you would have some extremely sensitive fingers constantly exposed! I would imagine it would be quite painful. but again, it would not cause you to die.

Why not? The finger-tips will be painful only a few days, extremely sensitive only a few weeks. I'd like the look and I am dreaming of...

If an ultrasound shows that you are 6 weeks 2 days instead of 7 weeks 4 days is it a bad sign if a gestational sac and yolk sac are seen but no heartbeat was able to be seen?

This is really something you should ask your doctor and I am disgusted that you were allowed to leave without being told what this meant. I am sorry it looks as though your baby may not be developing properly.

Can an unborn baby harm its mother by kicking?

yes it can if it kickes to hard it can bruise the inside of a womens stomach and cause damage to the stomach.

Are arguments harmful to the unborn baby?

Ok I can relate to this question. (Kinda). I was just pregnant and I really think that stress can cause a miscarriage...but I'm not 100% sure about it...

today I just found out I had a miscarriage..

My dad and I fight all the time and his girlfriend and his daughter. My boyfriend and I don't fight at all..(Sometimes just little arguments but that's not a big deal).

I was fine until I started arguing with people...but don't get me wrong you can also have a miscarriage for many other reasons too.

Stress I think is #1.

Just try relax and stay calm about things...that would be my best guess.
